Abstract
In this paper we present a methodological approach and a client-server software authoring environment for cooperative visual creation of story-outlines. The methodological approach adopted for story outlining facilitates the representation and visualisation of relevant aspects of stories in a way that is easy to use and understand, and enough general to admit a large number of types and genres of stories. Additional design objectives were set in order to support effective cooperative work and rapid story prototyping.
