The course will emphasize using writing as a tool to explore and discover their thought processes, beliefs, and world concepts.

  • ENG 115/116: Storytelling

    3.00 Credits
    DigiPen Institute of Technology

    Prerequisite(s): None Storytelling is one of the oldest art forms, yet narrative- the description of an event-is also one of the most complex human endeavors. The art of narrative is endless, and we have created an almost boundless number of forms for telling stories: gesture, speech, writing, painting, photography, cinema, television, comics, newspapers, music, theater, and video games. Contemporary narrative strategies and structures share much in common with the most archaic of storytelling traditions. This course begins by investigating the psychosocial drive to tell stories, and proceeds to examine how the principal elements of narrative assert themselves in a variety of narrative genres and across different media. Students will explore the rhetoric of narrative in its many guises, and gain an appreciation for both classical and contemporary formulations of story structure. In particular, this course focuses on how narrative may be adapted across media and genres. A series of written assignments focuses on the demands of storytelling made by different genres. Such a study discloses the particular attributes of each genre, and exposes the inextricable bond between narrative form and narrative content. Additionally, we will consider several ways to interpret narrative, negotiate the temporal restrictions of commercial storytelling applications, and begin to think about the ethics of storytelling.

  • ENG 150: Mythology for Game Designers

    3.00 Credits
    DigiPen Institute of Technology

    Prerequisite(s): ENG 110 The power of myth resides in its ability to touch the essence of our humanity and put meaning into our lives. Artists, filmmakers, game designers, and writers have appropriated elemental mythological premises and updated them to create modern myths accessible to contemporary audiences. Whether we are playing a role-playing game wherein the task is to rescue the princess and save the planet, reading the latest cyberpunk novel, or watching an animated Disney classic, the power of mythology touches our psyches. This course is an overview and analysis of cross-cultural mythology presented as poetry, prose, film, drama, and game. This class will provide an in-depth discussion of the idea that myths have influenced cultures of the past and continue to inform and influence our culture today. It also will examine the practical use of myth. Additionally, it will emphasize the mono-myth of the hero's journey and how a game developer may redefine the archetypal figures and adventures therein and incorporate them in a game design. One central aim of this course is to identify the many characteristics of the hero and suggest reasons why the hero is such a common figure in disparate traditions.
