The evolution of story-telling is as old as the human race; from
the beginning, when our ancestors first gathered around a campfire
to share wondrous tales through oral traditions, to today, with
information and stories being shared through waves and filling
screens with words and images. Stories have always surrounded us,
and united us in ways other disciplines can't. Storytelling for
Interactive Digital Media and Video Games lays out the construct of
the story, and how it can be manipulated by the storyteller through
sound, video, lighting, graphics, and color. This book is the
perfect guide to aspiring storytellers as it illustrates the
different manner of how and why stories are told, and how to make
them "interactive." Storytelling features heavy game development as
a method of storytelling and delivery, and how to develop
compelling plots, characters, settings, and actions inside a game.

differs from previous incarnations of mediums for stories Key
