NVLcommission

NVLcommission is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and advancing the field of narrative visualization and interactive storytelling. Founded in 2010, the commission aims to foster innovation, collaboration, and education within the community of creators who use digital tools to tell stories.

The organization hosts an annual conference, the NVLcon, which brings together professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts from around the world to share their work, discuss trends, and explore new technologies. NVLcommission also provides resources such as workshops, tutorials, and a community forum to support the growth of the field.

One of the key initiatives of NVLcommission is the NVL Awards, which recognize outstanding achievements in narrative visualization. The awards celebrate the best in interactive storytelling, visual design, and technical innovation, and have become a prestigious event in the industry.

In addition to its events and awards, NVLcommission works to advance the field through research and advocacy. The organization supports academic studies that explore the impact of narrative visualization on audiences and society, and advocates for the recognition of interactive storytelling as a legitimate form of artistic expression.

NVLcommission is governed by a board of directors composed of industry leaders and academics. The organization is funded through membership fees, sponsorships, and grants, ensuring its independence and commitment to the advancement of narrative visualization.
