The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
Wellywood Woman: "Single Rwandan is a four-unit transmedia project on many screens and in many voices: a documentary, a participatory web documentary, a book and an art installation, each looking from a different perspective at the search for love in today's Rwanda and how that search uses the internet and other new technologies."

Sam Gutelle: "Last August, The Lizzie Bennet Diaries won an Interactive Emmy Award, adding shiny gold feathers to the caps of creator Bernie Su and transmedia director Jay Bushman. Lizzie Bennet was able to win its Emmy because of its impressive transmedia presence, which includes 35 different Twitter feeds for individual characters and a handful of spin-off vlog channels" ...

Macaulay New Media Lab: "The more I engage with this fledgling series, the more I find out about the qualities of a good transmedia story. It isn’t enough to merely adapt a story for screen and print, there needs to be a compelling reason for it to bridge multiple mediums" ...
The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
An interesting, but to-the-point, analogy ....

Mike Vogel: "City of Refuge is an ambitious transmedia project about a fictional small town that serves as an alternative to prison, where criminals are reformed and safe from law-enforcement. But if they leave the town, they risk being chased down by bounty hunters. I interviewed producer Houston Howard about City of Refuge."

Alan Robinson: "Whether it has been through novels, webisodes, or interactive “alternate reality” games, the concept of transmedia storytelling continues to evolve in news ways as technology becomes more accessible. Nothing has been quite so immersive, however, as the SyFy Channel’s upcoming TV series, Defiance" ...

I'm really hoping Defiance lives up to expectations ... I guess only time will tell.

Es un proyecto con un importante impacto social que aprovecha múltiples expresiones y representaciones en textos plurales como el comic, arte callejero, contenido de aplicaciones y demás; un uso más allá de lo comercial como tendencia del transmedia.

Eager to learn more about 'For the Records' and it's dynamics--interactivity, audience participation, multiple threads--and where the gaming elements intersect with the other elements. All the things that create a rich sense of narrative transportation and multi-sensory experience may go a long way to shift perceptions through empathy.

James Carter: "After five seasons, two universes, and multiple timelines, Fringe ended its run January 18, 2013 on Fox. I’m proud to say I stuck with this show to the very end. More than anything – like other fans – I connected with the cast’s phenomenal performances. When the sci-fi was good, the show was great. When there was more “fi” than “sci,” the actors buoyed the show to the next peculiar portal."
The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
A great case-study! Thank you James Carter :)

Loved this show ... it had some 'jump the shark' moments, but it was one of the best scifi series to come along since BSG. I will miss the characters.
