Mapping the Transition from Page to Screen
Sue Thomas
Talk: Monday October 27, at 8pm
Mapping the Transition from Page to Screen was a one-year research project (2002-3) funded by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Board. It explored the common key moments of change for a writer moving to writing online and identified key skills which must be acquired for this transition to occur.
This talk outlines key issues which arose during the research period and proposes further areas for investigation. The project also produced a short online guide to the differences between print and new media literature and a practical online toolkit of support materials for writers new to the medium. http://trace.ntu.ac.uk/transition/
