Digital Fiction Factory

Question
The Internet, social media and other open systems have allowed for user generated content (UGC), crowd-sourcing and other forms of audience participation to prevail in digital media. But how do we translate these features into storytelling experiences, without treading on the toes of the author?

“The Digital Fiction Factory [is] a completely new kind of development and production centre.”

Peter Salmon, Director, BBC North

The Digital Fiction Factory is a creative partnership between the BBC, Channel 4, Creative England and Conker Media

Conker Media is a wholly owned subsidiary of Lime Pictures and part of the All3Media Group.

The BAFTA, Rose d'Or, Emmy-nominated and RTS and double-BANFF winning Conker Media team have played a leading role in the development of multi-layered storytelling in the UK; the achievements of which have been recognised internationally.

I found this question to be rather confusing and was beginning to worry that I wasn’t going to enjoy this subject as much as I thought I would at the beginning. Hopefully the next two questions I would understand more and begin to relax about the subject.
