A journey through time and space. A deep dive into our collective history. A radical and magic new way to experience our towns and cities.
StoryTrails will be created by YOU!
50 emerging creatives will be selected to produce one of the world’s largest immersive storytelling projects.
StoryFutures Academy has teamed up with the BFI, broadcaster and historian David Olusoga, the BBC, Uplands Television, and leading immersive specialists ISO Design and Nexus Studios to make StoryTrails.
