Project Idea

As part of my media rich project I will create an artefact that combines a variety of digital media consisting of an Interactive short film from the perspective of a character who has been kidnapped or in imprisonment. The character will wake up in the middle of the woods and find objects around them which are clues to who they are and how they got there and options how to escape.
The purpose of this project is to entertain and engage the audience as they experience an 'escape' situation game.

I will look at examples of short stories of a similar genre/ narrative such as popular escape room games "Crimson Room", "Viridian Room", and "Droom" as well as outdoor escape games such as 'tropical woods escape', and 'cabin escape'. I will look at the ways in which these successful games tell the story which keeps the audience engaged.

The intended audience is people who are interested in crime genre/ adventure, I will research into this demographic in order to tailor the artefact to this audience.

Within the film there will be choices the player can choose from which will be linked to another video (on youtube)
