SAN DIEGO, Sept. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Comic-Con
announced today it is bringing Storytelling Across Media
(SAM), a one-day symposium for aspiring writers and artists as
well as professionals interested in the art of storytelling, to
San Diego on Saturday, November 3, to the Comic-Con Museum, in
Balboa Park. The event was previously held in San Francisco in 2016.
Not a traditional comics convention, SAM does not feature an
exhibit hall. Instead the event will focus on storytelling through
a series of talks about how to tell a story in various media
including comics, gaming, animation, movies, and more. The
symposium endeavors to shine a spotlight on, as well as examine,
the similarities and differences in telling stories through diverse
forms of media, and focuses on the craft of telling a story through
creator lectures.
"We're thrilled to present SAM this year," said David Glanzer, spokesperson for Comic-Con. "The
symposium is an important part of our mission and to have it at the
future home of the Comic-Con Museum makes this event all the more
special."
Admission to SAM is free, however online registration is
encouraged, and seating for all symposium events is limited. SAM
will be held November 3, 2018, from
12:00 PM to 6:00 PM at the Comic-Con
Museum, 2131 Pan American Plaza, San
Diego, CA, 92101.
SAM is produced by San Diego Comic Convention and is part of the
San Diego Comic Convention family of events. SDCC is a nonprofit
educational corporation dedicated to creating awareness of, and
appreciation for, comics and related popular artforms, primarily
through the presentation of conventions and events that celebrate
the historic and ongoing contribution of comics to art and
culture.
