I enjoyed learning in the book several things about how imagineers think about designing. Imagineers use a term, plusing. What does that mean when you plus something? It's a form of yes-and if you're familiar with improv and that's something that we did a lot at Imagineering too. We're always trying to find ways to plus an experience.
With immersive experiences becoming more and more popular, it's important to ask: what makes an experience not just entertaining, but transformative? Margaret Kerrison, former Disney Imagineer and multi-award winning writer for immersive experiences, shares her answer to that question and more from her new book, Immersive Storytelling for Real and Imagined Worlds: A Writer’s Guide.
