HP multi-media projects?

descensus_hp of course, aside from stories has letters, newspaper clippings, objects, photos, etc. as narrative components. The Shoebox Project
shoebox_project also, of course, functions this way to a given degree.
So, does anyone know of any other HP fanfic projects that are not graphic novels but have a similar multimedia component? I'd like to create a themed list, and also maybe contact the maintainers of such things for a few reasons:
- to pimp each other's stuff
- to possibly develop a panel for one of the many upcoming cons
- to put together somethign to pitch as a story to one of the many HP-related podcasts.
Thanks!

Date: 2006-10-11 02:27 am (UTC)I've been sort of toying with the multimedia idea for a while now on other projects as well; one of my friends is producing audio dramas, and occasionally suggests I write him scripts. I'm also playing with the idea of being able to include content in an online form that I can't have in a paperback - one of my sci-fi projects is wanting to include press releases in-world, video and audio, interactive quizzes and crap like that. But most of the electronic-age stuff isn't really valid for HP character-created works.
I think anybody with a gaming background has probably created maps, props and so on for games; I see no reason this can't happen for stories. I expect most people tend to prefer only one medium for their story telling, or maybe two, so muldimedia projects may be a bit rarer, or at least want collaborators. Not everybody can draw, write, sew, animate, sculpt, and collage well enough that they want to share work in all those mediums.
And for me, it's part of the writing process; I draw location maps of bloody everything (damn Hogwarts' moving halls), sketch characters and furniture and clothes, things like that. I've made jewelry and knitted things for characters, bought outfits with them in mind (which sucks if what they like to wear doesn't look good on me; Ivy's coloring and mine don't go at all, so it's a good thing she's not a chotheswhore like me).
