Scope and content
File consists of an agenda for the workshop, which was held July 11-18, 2004. The program description for the workshop reads: "This year marked the tenth offering of the Banff New Media Institute’s Interactive Screen program. The 2004 Money and Law and Interactive Screen workshop continued to explore the potential of interactive content and software. It focused on capacity building, distribution strategies, rights models and international co-production. We evaluated what works as creative content in the current and near future market, paying attention to the expanding world of mobile new media.
Led by an international faculty with the participation of leading creative producers and artists, Interactive Screen combined formal and informal exchanges, a sense of play, and skill developing workshops. We explored the conceptualizing, writing, design, development, planning, and financing of ideas and projects.
The first part of Interactive Screen focused on creating new media content: wireless and broadband networks, cross-disciplinary visualization/VR, games, and collaborative environments. As well as formal presentations, participants took part in small projects and games, collaborations, individual project development, and one-on-one mentoring and peer learning sessions. Our 2004 Interactive Screen included an intensive writing for interactive media workshop and a special session on interaction design.
The second part of Interactive Screen is Money and Law. In 2004, Money and Law gathered leading companies in Canada, international partners, government and investors. This strategy session considered how to amalgamate and better support the new media industry in Canada and build international links. Money and Law also discussed distribution models for Canadian content creation, strategies for approaching media consolidation and the form that companies might best take, including alliances between specialty companies. During the Money and Law sessions, participants developed the ability to negotiate the complex and ever-shifting world of financing, rights and legal strategies for new media. The goal of Interactive Screen, as always, is to stimulate the creation of emotionally powerful, creatively inspired, and economically viable interactive media in Canada and abroad.
In 2004, the Western Economic Diversification (WD) New Media Company Accelerator program was run in conjunction with Interactive Screen 0.4."
