The Digital Domain

The Digital Domain was introduced in 2012 to address the exciting and unpredictable new directions taken by storytellers in a constantly mutating web environment. With an eye on the future the section will explore web series’, interactive documentaries, apps, rich media projects, data visualization and infographics, web generated content and many more possibilities.

In hour-long panel sessions, the Digital Domain aims to remain attentive to the demands of digital consumers while allowing a space for innovators to develop ongoing discourse around what it means to tell stories right here, right now, and deep into the future.

As the tools available to filmmakers and digital creatives evolve, so must the conversation; aims to help exhibit innovative new work and further that discussion, providing a window into this fertile new world of narrative exploration.
