The future of storytelling hack by Aftonbladet

Future Storytelling Hack is an event for students, journalists, developers and designers to get together and conceptualize something new for the news industry. This is our first organized hack event and we will kick it off with storytelling as theme.

Future Storytelling Hack is a team-based, news-media-focused prototyping and experimentation event within storytelling.

What is storytelling? A good story used to be presented with just text and images. Thanks to new media and digital technologies, now we can approach storytelling from unique perspectives. Good storytelling is when we can add digital layers to a traditional way stories are told in order to enhance it and engage the user.

There are limited spots available. We will divide all participants into cross functional teams existing of user experience, journalists, product and technologists with a team leader from Aftonbladet.

Apply before April 21st
