Abstract
ABSTRACT While there are several publications in the field of documentary studies that deal with the digital disruption and innovations, the sub-field of emerging media needs constant re-examination as modes of production, dissemination and exhibition are exposed to significant changes and interact with documentary film in its various established and new facets. Smart Storytelling leverages contemporary digital transformations in Film and Screen Production, Screen and Digital Media and the Creative Arts more generally and synchs these with documentary studies. This special issue also explores creative practice research projects in order to demonstrate novel approaches in documentary storytelling with a focus on online, network and multilinear non-fiction and documentary practice. Particular emphasis is placed on accessible storytelling approaches, illustrating often overlooked creative processes, such as audio in cinematic VR documentary, and exploring current developments and trends such as AI for documentary media.
