If you want to write television, film or even a novel,  this competition is not for you.

If you are still reading, then  you might be what the Immersive Writing Lab is looking for. Can you create a storyworld - a world that the characters, story and most importantly the audience can get lost in?

Think the Matrix, Star Wars, Doctor Who, Lost, Marvel Universe -  world's so dense, they move beyond linear narrative, with characters and  audience having multiple perspectives on the events that impact that world.  

Over the next 3 months the Immersive Writing Lab will be looking  to help you understand how this world can be created in five stages - world;  character; story; audience; and medium.

At the end, one lucky writer  will have the opportunity to win 6k to see their storyworld developed by  Portal Entertainment, a cross-platform production with backgrounds on Doctor Who and branded entertainment.

The next five have their work reviewed  and fed back on by Sarah Clay, Exec Multiplatform Producer (Becoming Human,  E20, Waterloo Reunited).

Where do I start?
Your first  task is coming up with a logline for your world – here is a blog post that  starts to explain how you can do it: What is a storyworld?

How the winner will be  selected?
Portal Entertainment and Sarah Clay will select the winner.  Community reviews will be taken into account but will not be the deciding  factor.

Prize
1) The winning writer will have their storyworld  developed with Portal Development, with an initial 6k development fund.  
2) The top 5 will have their storyworlds read and reviewed by Sarah  Clay, BBC Multiplatform Exec Producer .
