Integrated Storytelling MasterClass

At AdventureLAB, we work with Integrated Storytelling by design. This is our multi-platform, multi-level method for creating stories that can be presented and experienced in many different ways and places.

Based on our insights and experience gained from years of working with Integrated Storytelling, we have created this new, fast-track MasterClass programme for anyone who wants to understand and work with new narrative dimensions such as linear, digital, and interactive storytelling.

New Dimensions of
Storytelling

Introducing the Integrated
Storytelling MasterClass

Attractions, destinations, and marketers are among the many who can benefit from the power of great storytelling and its unique ability to create emotional and meaningful audience relationships and experiences. Behind any good story stands a well-designed structure and carefully picked channels and media, which can communicate it to the audience in the right way.

At AdventureLAB, we don’t just write stories, we design them. We acknowledge the importance of adapting them to new media and technology. New technological achievements are not making storytelling redundant. Rather, they represent opportunities to explore and experience stories in new ways which can be unlocked with Integrated Storytelling.

Our Integrated Storytelling MasterClass is a fast-track, 1- or 2-day course, focused on learning and practising principles of Storytelling and the integration of these across media, platforms, and disciplines.

As an organisation, you may have explored and applied storytelling in your work before. However, aren’t you curious to uncover how it can become a more powerful tool in your hands, and how using it you can go beyond messages and audiences to create complete worlds ready to be discovered and engaged with?

The Integrated Storytelling MasterClass does include workshop and co-creation sessions, but it consists of so much more. It is a short-track, inspiring and productive journey.

The Process

PURPOSE

Our goal is to give you a better understanding of the importance of Integrated Storytelling, how it shapes up the structure of multimedia communication, and how companies and brands can benefit from it by integrating the various principles in media and content production.

The process begins before the MasterClass takes place. Before the session, we start with a constructive dialogue with you to determine what your purpose and goals are for the Integrated Storytelling MasterClass. This will help us select the most relevant content for you and create a custom programme from which you can get the maximum benefit.

The MasterClass does include recurring modules of continuously updated topics and exercises, but we select and structure the content after we get to know you and your reason for choosing a MasterClass to advance your team’s proficiency in modern storytelling.

CONTENT

We are constantly exploring the past, present, and future of Integrated Storytelling. Of course, we don’t claim to know the future, but we do know what the tendencies are. Among them, we see how digital worlds need storytelling to maintain its connection with the human audience and how storytelling evolves by audiences adopting new technologies.

Some of the topics we cover include:

  • Storyworld building
  • Levels of storytelling
  • Designing integrated storytelling
  • Interactive, modular and AI storytelling
  • Story-based and themed experiences
  • New audience modalities
  • Designing brand personalities

FORMAT

The MasterClass is part lecture on Integrated Storytelling and part workshop. We integrate the learning of new possibilities with exercises to make the process more dynamic and efficient.

It is recommended to make a specific case become a part of the process so our efforts will be immediately relevant to your own work. A great choice can be one of your own past, current or future projects that you consider to approach with a new creative strategy. We suggest that a MasterClass has 4-12 participants. However, if you have another number of people in mind, just let us know, and we’ll make it work.

OUTPUT

The output of the day is based directly on the defined purpose for having your team take part in and spend time on an Integrated Storytelling MasterClass. The participants will obtain a greater understanding of what new ways of storytelling represent in terms of challenges and opportunities.

Everyone should leave with something that is immediately applicable in their work, such as for a specific project. In designing your Integrated Storytelling MasterClass, our focus will not only be on the MasterClass itself but what it should make happen afterward.

Your journey into new narrative dimensions begins here.
