| NLGD Adds Interactive Emmy Award Winner to Speaker Lineup The NLGD announces that Adriana Skarped has been added to the Festival of Games speaker lineup. Skarped worked as lead actor and designer on the participatory television series Sanningen om Marika (The Truth About Marika), which was awarded an Emmy for best Interactive TV Service in April of this year. Sanningen om Marika is a great example of a media production that combines traditional broadcast culture and gaming. Swedish television subcontracted The company P to produce this alternate reality, multi-platform media production. The result was an innovative and successful production offering online and live action role-playing experiences in parallel with traditional TV drama. Skarped was lead actor and a designer on a team of more than 20 people. Before Marika, Skarped provided game content for the Prosopopeia proposal, a design idea that uses the real world as a game interface. At the Festival of Games, Adriana Skarped will share her experience in the interactive cross-media field. She will walk you through some highlights of the game, and question the distinction between reality and fiction. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Game News :: home page |
