Narrative Examples
This page is a small showcase of some example narrative pieces taken from my current work as Creative in the themed entertainment sector.
Storytelling is at the heart of my industry; it guides my creative compass and is the raised flag to guide guests through layers of world-building wrapped around the multitude of experiences we produce.
One could suggest that the realms of gaming and themed entertainment share this viewpoint. I certainly do and, if you're reading this, I hope that so do you.
Short Story
In the form of a sea shanty, this short story was never intended to be published. Instead, this was designed as a fun tone-of-voice reference sheet for the design team. It communicated the brand values befittingly. It was applied to all facets of the project, from iconography to prop design.
Scriptwriting: Pre-show
A "pre-show" is a scripted piece that is set before guests experience the main show. These can introduce characters, deliver key story points, guest interactivity or act as a call to action after hours of queuing. This is an example of a pre-show for an interactive dark ride set in a stylised and fictional Library of Alexandria.
