​BRANCH: An Interactive Storytelling Challenge

​Presented by Interact Studio, Powered by CtrlMovie

​What if the audience didn't just watch your story, but got to decide how it unfolds?

​BRANCH is a two-week creative challenge bringing together filmmakers, screenwriters, designers and engineers to experiment with interactive storytelling.

​Create an original branching story where audience choices shape the narrative, influence characters and lead to different outcomes. Think filmmaking meets choose-your-own-adventure.

​Kickoff - November 9

​We'll kick things off by:

• ​Introducing the tools and resources available to participants.

• ​Forming teams and connecting creators.

• ​Hosting a special session with CtrlMovie on branching storylines and interactive storytelling.

​Can't make the kickoff?

​You can still participate! Register for the event, and we'll help match you with teammates and share the tools, resources and updates through our Discord community.

​What's Next?

• ​November 16 - Midpoint Workshop: Get guidance on storytelling, branching narratives and editing.

• ​November 20 - Premiere & Showcase: Present your finished experience at a live showcase and experience what other teams have created.
