Journey from Feature Film to Internet Fiction

Fp990456

Cloud Chamber is a premium online mystery launching this spring. It aims to raise the bar of online fiction with international stars, feature film production values and a deep understanding of social media and gaming. But fusing films, games and social networking into a single online experience means bringing together personalities and processes from very different worlds that don’t always speak the same language.

With a team that ranges from experienced film personnel such as producer Vibeke Windelov (Lars von Trier, Susanne Bier) to producer Stinna Lassen (straight out of film school) and the seasoned Internet director, Christian Fonnesbech and his team, the scene was set for a new kind of process. Both producers and talent had to break down many doors and barriers to work in a field that neither industry - nor financiers - called theirs. The session will focus on the project and its development – and what it's like not only to talk but to collaborate across domains.

Questions answered:
1. What is the team's vision for the future of entertainment?
2. What did they learn about collaborating across domains like film, games and internet?
3. In what way is visual storytelling for cinema and for the internet different?
4. What was the biggest showstopper in the process?
5. What were the biggest wins?
