The Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival (NIFFF) – in close collaboration with CineGlobe, THE Port at CERN, Geneva Centre for Security Policy (GCSP) – put together the first FUTURE STORYWORLDS workshop on 24-25 November 2017, which concluded in a very positive way. Initiated on September 26th, 2017, with a call for projects, the event focused on screenwriting for immersive media, from VR to 360° experiences, through augmented/mixed realties and video games.

The workshop’s given theme was dystopia in the context of the existential risks associated with society’s technological development. To strengthen the narrative structure and better define the projects’ concepts, the organisers have gathered an impressive panel of scientific experts and storytelling professionals. After two days of evaluation, the jury has selected Salômé Guillemin’s project, The day we became aliens, to receive the incentive for development.
