Collective Storytelling is a blog that serves as a repository class assignments for an unnamed class at NYU (maybe the class is titled, Collective Storytelling?).
The blog tantalizes with brief descriptions of the assignments, and the assignments themselves — but without very detailed explanations of the assignments. One posted idea for a final project sounds like fun:
I think it would be fun to harness the characters everyone in the world knows about — celebrities, as themselves. What I’d love to do (although I don’t have the programming chops) would be to call it “Five Celebs Stuck in an Elevator.” You pick 5 celebs from a list, and then you write a story about what happens when they get stuck in an enclosed space, and how they eventually get out (or perhaps don’t). In my imagination, their lines come out of their lil celebrity heads like speech bubbles [as shown above].
