This week we began our final assessment for Networked Media. It is now time for us to implement what we have learned through the course from the workshops, lectures and readings and create our own interactive, inclusive and original hypermedia story. I was excited about this idea as I have found that a lot of the course I am doing is applicable to this project. Particularly the content I am learning in Story Lab about transmedia and we are now creating our own transmedia stories.

I think this project will need to focus most of its energy on making a story that lends itself to different mediums and final outcomes to truly make it enjoyable. Also I feel the experience needs to be fluid and without fault as an audience will become disinterested if they are experiencing problems with the technicalities. We then had to form our groups and I am quite happy with my group as we all have different abilities that we can contribute to make the project the best it can be. For example Andrea has a strong ability in writing and she likes to write and Hannah has the ability to understand the technical side of it. Jordan is a video developer and can help interject the different platforms the assessment requires. I hope to bring to the group help in all of these fields from text and story to mixed media and even helping the technical side of things along.
