It combines important theoretical insights with an impressive range of case studies which make it an essential companion to anyone seeking to understand what’s distinctive about work in this field or looking to embark on a project of their own.” - Adam Ganz, Head of Writers’ Room, StoryFutures and Professor of Screenwriting, Royal Holloway University of London, UK This book is focused on screenwriting and development for virtual reality (VR). It explores a diverse range of creative approaches to the writing and screen development of VR stories and immersive audience experiences. Contributions from scholars and practitioners combine conceptual and practically orientated approaches for creating fictional and documentary media VR stories. The book evaluates, challenges and adapts existing screenwriting models and practices for immersive storytelling and grapples with the future of storytelling in the era of sophisticated computer visualization, AI and the online social metaverse. The book proposes new VR storytelling models, identifies altered relationships between creators, screen works and their audiences and demonstrates how interdisciplinary practices will be core to the future of screen storytelling.
