Event Description
The convergence of interactive media, entertainment and education is a key global trend in contemporary film and media production. Story architect Mahyad Tousi, CEO & Cofounder of BoomGen Studios, discusses the creation of his company’s ‘Operation Ajax’ project. Using a variety of media platforms, including an award-winning iOS graphic novel application, a video game, educational tools and a feature film, ‘Operation Ajax’ tells the story of a critical and too-often ignored historical event: the 1953 Iranian coup d’état that was orchestrated by the UK and the USA.
