Visualising Plots – Storytelling Tool

Project Proposal: Visualising Plots – Storytelling Tool

Beemgee GmbH

| Project Factory Creative Industries

Humans are storytelling animals

• Stories are a vital part of our cultural heritage

• All media rely on a constant supply of new stories

Hardly any software exists that separates form from content

Beemgee provides the first browser-based software that:

1. Helps authors develop plots and characters

2. Helps media companies evaluate, collaboratively work on, sell

and adapt material (stories) across media and cultures

We plan to adapt our tool to other contexts: non-fiction, journalism,

exhibition planning, business storytelling.

Project idea and method


Olaf Bryan Wielk –

• Profession: Media and Marketing Consultant

• Industry: Publishing, mostly

• Academic: English Language and German

Robert S. Becker –

• MD of the web agency plus B, which has been making websites

and software for over 10 years in Berlin

Samir Rachidi –

• Our Chief Developer

Team


• We have first beta users and positive feedback

• We have many top level industry contacts waiting to test our full

software

• We have two media companies that want strategic partnership

• We need to build our full prototype by October 2015

• We as yet have no funding

• We have no European partners

• We have no partners from the cultural or academic sector

Project background


We have not identified a specific call that fits to our business case.

Relevant call


We are looking for partners from the following sectors:

• Cultural studies and literature faculties, etc.

• Media: Film & TV, publishing, narrative games, etc.

• Culture: theatre, audio storytelling, etc.

As a media-oriented business, our product is adaptable to:

• The preservation of Europe’s cultural heritage, eg. in the form of

a systematized database of Europe’s story structures in a

context, eg., of comparative cultural studies

• The treatment of depression, anxiety, stress, etc. in the context,

eg., of behavioral therapy

Partner / Consortium


Beemgee has the power to be disruptive in the media industry

because our software digitalizes previously analog processes, such

as the evaluation and adaption of stories.

Beemgee may revolutionize how stories are created and traded in

the international media market.

Our software is accessible (freemium) and so easy to use that

people who have hitherto been overwhelmed by the idea of creating

an entire story will now be able to. This democratizes a creative

process. Now everybody can be a storyteller.

Beemgee has potential to help preserve our cultural heritage.
