For three consecutive weeks this November I had the pleasure of teaching the digital part of the MA in Creative Entrepreneurship at University of East Anglia on a Tuesday morning. Those on the course come from a really wide variety of creative backgrounds, from ceramics to film making and acting, music to photography, each with their own ambitions of how they would like to apply business to their practice.
I’d been given an incredibly free reign on what I could talk about by course director Ian Chance. So I thought for our first week of explorations we’d look at storytelling techniques being used within digital media, as it seemed that this brought many creative disciplines together. Below is an edited version of that original ‘lecture’.
If you’d like to follow a few people on Twitter who are doing really interesting things in this area here are a few suggestions:

@eddie_grundy: Thanks for the tweet. The only people I know who went to University are @Brenda_Tucker and @ColinBeerBikeIt. Their Twitter pages are boring.

Absolutely brilliant work Kathryn. I was especially enthralled by the conspiracyforgood work, which was a genius idea. Slightly complex possible, and time consuming for all involved, but a truly fantastic example of how brands can do good and entertain whilst using new technologies. I loved it all!

Wow! Thanks so much Tracey.
Thanks for all your hard work over those all too few weeks on the UEA (London) MA in Creative Entrepreneurship course, I am still trying to make a final decision on how to go about building my website but am at least now comparing options in a far more informed way, thanks to a couple of little gems of input from you!

Thanks Gary! Much appreciated. Do keep me posted in the direction you take.
