Our Team

StoryTrails saw 17 creatives making augmented reality trails across city centres, 15 creatives building immersive installations which will map the emotional geography of a location, 9 creatives developing VR experiences, and 9 creatives taking on a professional placement in one of the StoryTrails partner organisations.

The practitioners had unprecedented access to archive material from the BFI, national and regional film archives across the UK as well as the BBC, with a remit to reimagine screen heritage for the future of the UK’s screen based industries.

50 Creatives

A team of 50 creative media practitioners were recruited and trained by StoryFutures Academy to tell the stories of 15 communities through state-of-the-art immersive technologies in new and surprising ways.

Their varied roles included creating augmented reality trails across city centres, building immersive installations which mapped the emotional geography of a location, or taking on a professional placement in one of the StoryFutures partner organisations. 

All roles involved working as part of a project with unprecedented access to archive material from the BFI, national and regional film archives across the UK as well as the BBC, with a remit to reimagine our screen heritage for the future. Full training in immersive technology was been provided alongside access to state of the art equipment, production support and production credits for their work.
