INNZ ZOOM workshops “Make your own digital Interactive” with Emily Loughnan and Curio
15 April 2021 12pm-1pm Instructional Workshop
6 May 12pm-1pm Follow up “Show and Tell” Workshop
INNZ is excited to announce our first event for 2021! This FREE two-part workshop will result in a touchscreen interactive, of your creation, ready to be put in front of your visitors. No previous tech skills required! (Yes, really!). The workshop, hosted by Emily Loughnan, uses the online software Curio Publisher. You will be able to take advantage of the software’s free licence to try a hand a building your own digital interactive.
15 April Workshop
Emily will show you how the (easy) software works, and what it’s capable of. We’ll look at examples of what others have done and brainstorm together what you could do with it.
6 May Workshop
Participants will get a chance to show others what they’ve done, and for others to ask questions or contribute ideas and feedback. It’ll be a chance for us all to learn about interactive story-telling and make our own minds up on what works best.
Your free trial licence means that interactive can be on the floor as soon as you’re ready. We hope to see you there!

About the presenter
Emily has a long (since 1994) career making bespoke interactives, particularly for the GLAM sector, through her business, Click Suite. That work has attracted 125 awards and finalists placings, and now Emily has turned that passion for interactive story-telling into the Curio Publisher software. “I know how expensive digital can be, and I’m really keen to see more people using it. This software is made to empower those working in the sector, to make their own interactives – and not need us anymore!”
