The How : : Mapping Folk-Scrolls

Folk-Scrolls: A New Form of Storytelling 〰️ To bring this form of storytelling to life, I'm using Playbook to project manage and mockup samples, as well as bring in collaborators and teammates as needed. For example, some Folk-Scrolls may call for a soundscape: I will share my Playbook link with sound artists to give them a bird's eye view of the project. Folk-Scrolls will be multimedia from video to audio to text-based and visual, depending on the story represented.

This is the next step in the evolution of my own creative practice, as I've been creating animations and illustrations, researching stories, and writing for a long time. With Playbook as the central organizing hub, I'll be able to bring all of these mediums together into one simple and seamless experience.

Folk-Scrolls harness Community Voices 〰️ Folk-Scrolls invite collaborators to offer a folktale or mythological story from their ancestry. Then, I create 2-4 animated illustrations (gifs) bringing the story to life.

In this way, Folk-Scrolls activate both community collaboration and have multi-cultural impact that emphasizes diversity. By telling tales across different communities and in partnership with collaborators, Folk-Scrolls reach broad audiences. Simultaneously, they also build a diverse living archive of folktales!

The BIG VISION goal is to build a living archive of Folk-Scrolls that include folktales and fairytales (and collaborators) from across the world!

My 30-Day Plan 〰️ Upon receiving the Imagination Fund, I will deliver the following within 30 days:

  • 1 Gorgeous Folk-Scroll. This Scroll will feature 1 interactive component, 1 sound component, and 2-4 new animated illustrations. I will use Playbook-awarded funds towards production as needed. I have already identified 4 stories I'll choose from, to bring to life!

  • 1 Folk-Scroll Project Board. Playbook will watch Boards being used for project management and story-mapping in real time! Upon completion and publication of the first Folk-Scroll, Playbook Boards will be available as "behind the scenes" process documentation.

  • A new form of storytelling. The first Folk-Scroll will serves as a prototype for a broader series. This way, the impact of the first Playbook-funded Folk-Scroll will reach far beyond the initial pilot. The long-term vision is to build a living archive of Folk-Scrolls that include folktales and fairytales (and collaborators) from across the world.
