Screentakes eBook Series on Kickstarter Launches - Published on 06/03/14
Screentakes has created a new type of media rich ebook with video, photos, audio clips and interactive graphics integrated with the text to create a unique learning experience. Developed from Screentakes Founder Jennine Lanouette's 20+ years of lecturing on screenplay story structure, these ebooks provide in-depth analysis of great films that will increase their understanding of the art of screenwriting. The goal of the Kickstarter campaign is to complete the first two ebooks.
San Rafael, California - Screentakes Digital Publishing, LLC, announces a Kickstarter campaign to launch the unique Screentakes eBook Series of media-rich, interactive, ebooks for story structure analysis. Developed out of Screentakes Founder Jennine Lanouette's 20+ years experience lecturing on screenplay story structure, these ebooks provide creative professionals and cinephiles alike with in-depth analysis of great films that will increase their understanding of the art of screenwriting.
Each ebook combines Lanouette's distinctive analysis with video and audio clips, still photos and interactive graphics. The goal of the campaign is to do finishing work on the prototype ebook analyzing the beloved classic, "The African Queen" and produce a second ebook on "Thelma & Louise," while also making them available for iOS, Android and web streaming.
"We have a cultural bias about text on a page," says Lanouette. "We think we have to be reading to be learning. My prototype multimedia ebook demonstrates that the combination of visuals, audio and text, plus some interactivity, makes for an engaging and enjoyable learning experience, even for the heady, in-depth structural analysis that I provide. What this means for me is that I get to take this subject I love to teach and make it available to many, many more people than I could ever reach in classrooms."
