This nonlinear and interactive film project by Fiona Ferby, entitled RAPACITY, focuses on temptations of greed.

The project uses a choose your own adventure as a device not only to communicate the message but also to engage the viewer further in choosing their own path. Viewers will be able to go through multiple scenarios which will lead the protagonist to experience alternative outcomes. The interaction within the film narrative will depict either a lonely, isolated life; or they will be successful leading to a full life where the character does not overindulge with their wishes.

I have been passionate about film and movies for as long as I can remember- always fascinated by how a moment can be captured, rewatched, and manipulated.

“Through my time in the Media Studies program here at UBCO, I have furthered my expertise in filmmaking, creative coding, graphic design, and interactive media. This project was created for my media studies capstone class and is a culmination of all of the skills and interests I have developed through this program. Throughout my degree, I have been given the opportunity to expand on my prior interests such as film and further explore other creative mediums and methods. One of the new interests that I discovered through my time at UBCO was interactive media and design. Through this project, I have been able to combine my main focus and passion for videography with my new interest in interactivity; leaving my final footprint at UBC with my two passions.” – Fiona Ferby
