During the Developing Interactive Narrative Content Seminar pre-selected interactive narrative projects in development (no limitation on media, genre or target audience) will be provided in parallel with high-profile face-to-face consulting sessions (on financing, project management, marketing, story structure, interaction design...).

Consultants will be chosen according to the needs of the selected projects. For 2006 nine projects have been selected:
Class Crossed (N/Catherine Kahn + Team)/(IPTV) - a multi-perspective narrative web of everyday themes skewed into views of modern sexual and social mores in an entertaining and juvenile immediate telling.
Festina Lente (I/Cristian Bettini) - a project to produce
psychogeographic interactive content using the oldest ways of transportation combined with new technologies. Integration TV (FIN/Simon Staffans + team) - An interactive TV show about bringing opposites together. Missing (NL/Dylan Jones) - Interactive film (DVD) dealing with the sudden disappearance of a close person.
Mobi Concept (D/Volker Eloesser) - A mobile game containing a massive number of mini games.
Paddygames (IR/Michael J. Maguire) - (ITV-series) A funny soap-style comedy who dunnit with a technically innovative back end.
Past Perfect Phase III (A/ Florian Schmeiser)
A web-based entertaining teaching and learning environment.
