Task 1

This is some of the research im starting on Digital story telling. This digital story is a comic which uses interactivity to be able to read it, it says in the screenshot under 'instructions' how to read this comic, Dead on arrival. http://www.dead-on-arrival.co.uk/

One thing I thought was a really good idea in this story was the way you can click in the top right of the page and drag it across to turn a page, or click the option to do it automatically.

Here, to go to the next chapter you had to click on it. ( on screenshot above)

This part in the story was quite clever, with your mouse, you could move the screen left and right to look for ideas/ clues etc to click on then proceed with the story.

I think the story was told pretty well, It was based a bit like a crime investigation and you had to work out who had poisoned the main character. To do this you have to search for evidence and find out things, then you have to pick who you think did it. Turns out it was his wife, I didn't have a clue that it was.

I think the interactive parts get you involved in the story a lot more, and make you more interested in the story and what is going on because, some parts in this story you have to think for yourself to find the answers. Which is a good thing because it gets you involved.
