| Organizer: | Christopher Tihor |
| When & Where: | 9.30 am to 12.00pm, SFU Surrey room # 2710 |
| Intended Audience: | The intended audience of this workshop would be writers, narrative designers, and other people involved in the creation of IDS on a practical level or those with an interest in that direction. Attendees should be willing to actively participate in the exercises which may require improvisational role-playing, basic drawing skills and an active imagination. A basic familiarity with geek culture is useful, but not necessary. |
