It may be useful to regard a web presentation as a story. You have something you want to tell the 'reader'. It could be something about what services your company may offer, best practice for your intranet/projectweb, or a story to your employees on possible changes in you company to raise quality in services and working environments.
We will take starting point in linear story telling using video and move to multimedia based presentations at the same time introducing interactive story telling.
The exercise will use the ongoing semester project as basis for sketching how an interactive story can be told.
