Today, interactive user-oriented narrative is overtaking story 
structures traditionally linked to linear time-based narrative. Unlike 
time-based media, which are often single-authored, and presented to its 
audience, digital space based narrative evolves through user motivated 
use of the media affordances in different contexts. The user, unlike the 
audience, co-creates the story while playing it, but also helps in 
reshaping the media.


For its third issue, the International Journal of Film and Media Arts 
welcomes contributions in the form of full articles that deal with the 
theoretical and empirical implications of spatial storytelling for both 
film and other media. We would particularly like to receive 
contributions that would focus on:

-          The role of spatial based narrative in the transformation of 
film form;

-          Case studies on the application of spatial narrative in 
different media namely those that cross film and videogames;

-          Spatial narrative structures and models;

-          Mix media used of spatial narrative.
