The Un-Festival will be about the collusion between the well established TV world and the constantly moving Internet world.
What can the TV world learn from the internet world. With the success of video online like Lonely Girl 15, YouTube, Videoblogging, etc.
Is the cross media successes of Perplexcity and Bristel Goodman all about narrative or the platforms they use?
After the un-festival, we will move across to the main festival - http://www.mgeitf.co.uk/ for the evening drinks. You will also have access to the regular festival on Sunday for free.
Can anyone who is taking part indicate where they will be staying. It would make sense for people to stay in the same place if possible. (I will also be attending the MediaGuardian Edinburgh International Television Festival proper either side of the TV Un-Festival.)
I am now staying at the Jurys Inn Hotel but have had to book a twin room. Anyone looking for last minute accommodation is welcome to share, which will save me some of the cost of attending the events! Jurys is right next to Waverley Station and near to the International Conference Centre (where the main gig takes place).
