In five days of workshop, the possibilities of interactive storytelling for children will be explored by the participants, while guided by experienced trainers. Each participant will also design and build an interactive project based on his own material or ideas, using the Korsakow system as a software tool. On the 6th day the results of the project will be presented.
Participants can bring at maximum 40 minutes of material to make a workshop project from. It is also possible (to a limited extent) to shoot material during the workshop. If you don't have material to work with or would rather work with fresh material, you can use material provided by us.
The results of Korsakow projects can be published on CDrom, DVDrom or the Internet.
No specific technical knowledge is required to be able to use the software. During the workshop technical and conceptual assistance is constantly available.
