Film-maker visionary Tim Burton is writing his new story with the help of the Twitterverse.
The story-telling experiment invites anyone to chip in to create a tale about Burton’s beloved character Stainboy with a tweet featuring a hashtag #BurtonStory.
Each day the best tweet is selected to continue the story which at the moment is 18 parts long. The final version will be published on 6 December.

Digital media and creative industry people were invited along when storytelling legend Robert McKee arrived at Tyneside Cinema last Monday with his famous touring seminar and sharp tongue.
Two intensive days later the audience had heard about Aristotle’s classical story design, practical points on how to structure a story and that modern European cinema sucks.
After 25 years of teaching about storytelling, McKee doesn’t really need to watch his words. Having the likes of John Cleese and Charlie Kaufman as regular clients is surely a good reference.
