The Medium of Transmedia can get pretty complicated, as we learned today in class. the thing I find to be most interesting about Transmedia is that the fan can choose how far they want to "dive" into the show or film. I never knew what to call it when you just cant get enough of something, you gotta keep trying to uncover something new. This brings me to the idea of the spoiler only because the fan has to know what happens next. I'm don't think that I would be a big fan of Transmedia because it seems that there would be more of a let down if things don't play out on the screen the way I envision them to be.
on a side not the artist I would like to research is Abe Kass and he is the founder and CEO of the Smart Life System and Wisdom Scientific publishing house. I found him on Cdbaby.com.

Shannon - would it really be a let down if things didnt play out the way you envisioned them to be? Or could you be even more surpised buy what actuallly happens and think "wow i never though about it turning out that way" or "i never saw that comming". I think that is the fun part about engaging and diving into something. being surprised and trying to figure out the ending whether it comes ture the way you envisioned it or not.
ReplyDeleteShannon- on your artist profile, beyond those three MP3s he has for sale - is he doing any other Media 2.0 stuff? I googled him, and it looks like he is mostly just selling his therapy services. I don't think he has enough going on media wise to be a good subject for this project, unless he has other sites that I missed.
ReplyDeleteI still want to know is transmedis just with fiction films and shows like the matrix and star wars? I hate movies like that so I guess I'm not in the trans Eduardo if this is so..
ReplyDeleteJashma, Jenkins is talking about transmedia in terms of a new way of telling stories, so it is related to fiction, specifically. It doesn't have to be just sci fi, however.
