Work in Story Creation
and Development
We have a huge hunger for story creation and development. Let’s just look at the numbers.
All of our programmes have stories, and these programmes are currently in production:
#CertainAboutUncertainty – a suite of programmes to support emotional wellbeing consisting of apps, stories, and games with versions for 14 different groups.
CalmBaby – a programme to reduce the effects of maternal stress hormones crossing the placenta during pregnancy – this reduces fractiousness, improves sleep (in baby and parents!) and could reduce the likelihood of the child having anxiety, or difficulty dealing with stressful situations.
Type2.Club – a game-changing, behaviour changer helping people already diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, and those concerned about possibly getting Type 2, with support and guidance that is fun.
NoWeigh – No diets, no weighing, no forbidden foods, no guilt, but a scientific approach to permanently reducing the amount of body-fat people carry to that which they choose to have. It works because it is something people love doing.
+ programmes for teens affected by stress, anxiety, depression, self-harming and suicidal thoughts
+ programmes for small and medium enterprise owners.
We intend to produce 6 programmes between now and mid 2022.
Each programme will have at least 12 versions for different age, life-event and interest groups.
So, that’s 6 programmes x 12 versions = 72!
And…
It’s branch fiction – so from time-to-time, the users of the programmes get to choose what happens next (it’s how we assess how well they are progressing).
Say there are just 10 variants in each version – that’s 720 large or small plot lines needed pretty quickly!
Hi. I’m interested in finding out more about undertaking work with NISAD and companies that are associated with, or supply NISAD.
