To strengthen our interdisciplinary Bachelor programme MultiMediaArt, we are looking for an external lecturer with extensive experience in storytelling, narrative design, creative strategy and narrative innovation.
The position involves teaching within a consecutive two-semester course sequence attended by students from Film, Audio, Communication Design, Animation and Game Design.
Lectureship The Art of Story
(Winter Semester / 2 weekly semester hour / Type: Lecture with exercise)
Lectureship Future Storytelling
(Summer Semester / 2 weekly semester hour / Type: Lecture with exercise)
The courses form an interdisciplinary minor track designed to complement the students' primary specialization ( Film / Audio/ Animation/ Communication Design). Students develop a personal storytelling approach and learn how narrative thinking can strengthen their creative work.
Story is understood in its broadest sense: as the creation of meaning, emotion, engagement and audience connection. This is not a screenwriting course. The focus lies on narrative thinking as a transferable creative skill that can be applied across disciplines, formats and technologies.
