Co-Creation: A Shared Process of Storytelling - Harrison N., Noce, K. (2025)


How and where films are made shape who is included, what stories emerge, and why they matter. Inspired by Ursula K. Le Guin (1998) we explore storytelling as a flexible vessel that evolves in response to what it holds. Co-creation expands authorship, ensuring films are collective inquiries. As Freire (1970) argues, knowledge is formed through dialogue and practice, making filmmaking a shared space of meaning-making, ethics, and responsibility.


Haraway (2016) frames storytelling as confabulation shaped by relationships rather than singular authorship. Albright’s Panaesthetics (2014) sees artistic disciplines as fluid and interconnected. In filmmaking, this shifts the creative process into something non-hierarchical. Seek-and-Hide (2019) demonstrates this through blind storytelling. Each artist animated without knowing the full narrative. This process fostered meaning through shared interaction.


In the accompanying workshop, participants will experiment with an outdoor storyboarding technique to co-create a short sequence.


We will explore how “En-Plein-Air” (ExEd24, 2024) environments alter co-creative storytelling. The session concludes by reflecting on alternative co-creation models, such as Anima Mundi (2024), which interweaves multiple perspectives within a shared thematic frame. This proposal invites discussion on co-creation as an educational and ethical practice, preparing the next generation of filmmakers to engage meaningfully with cinema’s transformative power.

Co-creazione: un processo condiviso di narrazione — Harrison N., Noce K. (2025)


Il modo e il luogo in cui i film vengono realizzati determinano chi vi partecipa, quali storie emergono e perché sono significative. Ispirandoci a Ursula K. Le Guin (1998), esploriamo la narrazione come un contenitore flessibile che si trasforma in relazione a ciò che contiene. La co-creazione amplia l’autorialità, trasformando i film in indagini collettive. Come sostiene Paulo Freire (1970), la conoscenza si forma attraverso il dialogo e la pratica, rendendo la creazione cinematografica uno spazio condiviso di costruzione di significato, etica e responsabilità.

Donna Haraway (2016) interpreta la narrazione come una confabulazione plasmata dalle relazioni piuttosto che da un singolo autore. Per Albright (2014), le discipline artistiche sono fluide e interconnesse. Nel cinema, ciò trasforma il processo creativo in qualcosa di non gerarchico. Seek-and-Hide (2019) ne offre un esempio attraverso la narrazione cieca: ogni artista ha animato senza conoscere l’intera storia. Questo processo ha generato significato attraverso l’interazione condivisa. Durante il workshop, i partecipanti sperimenteranno una tecnica di storyboard all’aperto per co-creare una breve sequenza.

Esploreremo come gli ambienti “En-Plein-Air” (ExEd24, 2024) influenzino la narrazione co-creativa. La sessione si concluderà riflettendo su modelli alternativi di co-creazione, come Anima Mundi (2024), che intreccia molteplici prospettive all’interno di una cornice tematica comune. Questa proposta invita a discutere la co-creazione come pratica educativa ed etica, preparando la nuova generazione di cineasti a impegnarsi in modo significativo con il potere trasformativo del cinema.
