Book Synopsis Transmedial Narratology and Contemporary Media Culture by : Jan-Noël Thon
Download or read book Transmedial Narratology and Contemporary Media Culture written by Jan-Noël Thon and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2016-06 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Narratives are everywhere--and since a significant part of contemporary media culture is defined by narrative forms, media studies need a genuinely transmedial narratology. Against this background, Transmedial Narratology and Contemporary Media Culture focuses on the intersubjective construction of storyworlds as well as on prototypical forms of narratorial and subjective representation. This book provides not only a method for the analysis of salient transmedial strategies of narrative representation in contemporary films, comics, and video games but also a theoretical frame within which medium-specific approaches from literary and film narratology, from comics studies and game studies, and from various other strands of media and cultural studies may be applied to further our understanding of narratives across media.
Book Synopsis Transmedial Narration by : Lars Elleström
Download or read book Transmedial Narration written by Lars Elleström and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book is a methodical treatise on narration in different types of media. A theoretical rather than a historical study, Transmedial Narration is relevant for an understanding of narration in all times, including our own. By reconstructing the theoretical framework of transmedial narration, this book enables the inclusion of all kinds of communicative media forms on their own terms. The treatise is divided into three parts. Part I presents established and newly developed concepts that are vital for formulating a nuanced theoretical model of transmedial narration. Part II investigates the specific transmedial media characteristics that are most central for realizing narratives in a plenitude of different media types. Finally, Part III contains brief studies in which the narrative potentials of painting, instrumental music, mathematical equations, and guided tours are illuminated with the aid of the theoretical framework developed throughout the book. Suitable for advanced students and scholars, this book provides tools to disentangle the narrative potential of any form of communication.
Book Synopsis Transmedial Worlds in Everyday Life by : Susana Tosca
Download or read book Transmedial Worlds in Everyday Life written by Susana Tosca and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this pioneering new book, authors Klastrup and Tosca explore the many ways that transmedial worlds are present in people’s everyday life, proposing a new theory of (trans)media use for the digital age. People are not only reading, watching and playing in fictional worlds like never before, but also using them to reflect about their lives through Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and other channels, commenting on their marriages or their life at the office, analyzing current news, or reminiscing on the role these worlds played in their childhood. The book’s unique methodological approach combines an aesthetic and literary perspective that looks closely at the different fictional universes, with an empirical user perspective that builds upon 15 years of sustained work on transmediality. The result is a theory that covers both the personal, experiential dimension of fictional worlds and the social dimension of sharing with each other. A fascinating and contemporary examination of media worlds and their communities, this book offers students and scholars of fandom, media, cultural and reception studies a new theoretical and methodological framework, through which to understand the phenomenon of transmedial worlds, and people's engagement with them.

Download or read book Transmedia 2.0 written by Nuno Bernardo and published by . This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every producer aspires to design an entertainment brand that can grow into a pop icon, a brand whose storyworld or hero has enough creative potential to power spin-offs and reboots, theme park rides and acres of merchandise. So how can independents achieve this degree of success if they don't have a hundred million dollars to spend on a marketing campaign or the time to gamble on a viral video or game? In "Transmedia 2.0: How to Create an Entertainment Brand Using a Transmedial Approach To Storytelling," Nuno Bernardo will show readers how to use the transmedia approach to build an entertainment brand that can conquer global audiences, readers and users in a myriad of platforms. "Transmedia 2.0" is the follow up to the 2011 bestseller "The Producers Guide to Transmedia" and draws on Nuno Bernardo's experience of multi-platform storytelling and production. Inspired by Orson Welles radio play "War of the Worlds," Nuno has being exploring new forms of interactive and immersive storytelling for the past decade. Using his unique approach to transmedia, Nuno has produced more than 200 hours of multi-platform content; from feature films and TV shows to mobile apps and books. His transmedia franchises have been adapted all across the globe, from the UK to China, conquering tens of millions of loyal fans and featuring in the world's greatest film and television festivals along the way. Through his own experience, Nuno has developed a step-by-step approach to building long-running multi-platform entertainment brands and loyal viewing communities. Now he is sharing his knowledge with filmmakers, content producers for television, gaming and web, marketers and brand managers, audiovisual and media students. All of the aforementioned have one thing in common; they want to learn a trick or two about how to use stories and a transmedial approach to marketing and communication to attract audiences and users to their stories and products. This book analyses how multi-platform storytelling and distribution can help producers to establish true entertainment brands and intellectual property. It also features a series of real case studies discussing ideas and concepts of how transmedia can be key to promoting and engaging with audiences around a traditional TV show, feature film, game or consumer brand.
Book Synopsis Transmedia Storytelling and the Apocalypse by : Stephen Joyce
Download or read book Transmedia Storytelling and the Apocalypse written by Stephen Joyce and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book confronts the question of why our culture is so fascinated by the apocalypse. It ultimately argues that while many see the post-apocalyptic genre as reflective of contemporary fears, it has actually co-evolved with the transformations in our mediascape to become a perfect vehicle for transmedia storytelling. The post-apocalyptic offers audiences a portal to a fantasy world that is at once strange and familiar, offers a high degree of internal consistency and completeness, and allows for a diversity of stories by different creative teams in the same story world. With case studies of franchises such as The Walking Dead and The Terminator, Transmedia Storytelling and the Apocalypse offers analyses of how shifts in media industries and reception cultures have promoted a new kind of open, world-building narrative across film, television, video games, and print. For transmedia scholars and fans of the genre, this book shows how the end of the world is really just the beginning...

Book Synopsis Narratology beyond Literary Criticism by : Jan Christoph Meister
Download or read book Narratology beyond Literary Criticism written by Jan Christoph Meister and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-08-22 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology presents the results of the Second International Colloquium of the Narratology Research Group (Hamburg University). It engages in the exploration of approaches that broaden Narratology's realm. The contributions illustrate the transcendence of traditional models common to Narratology. They also reflect on the relevance of such a 'going beyond' as seen in more general terms: What interrelation can be observed between re-definition of object domain and re-definition of method? What potential interfaces with other methods and disciplines does the proposed innovation offer? Finally, what are the repercussions of the proposed innovation in terms of Narratology's self-definition? The innovative volume facilitates the inter-methodological debate between Narratology and other disciplines, enabling the conceptualization of a Narratology beyond traditional Literary Criticism.

Book Synopsis Subjectivity across Media by : Maike Sarah Reinerth
Download or read book Subjectivity across Media written by Maike Sarah Reinerth and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Media in general and narrative media in particular have the potential to represent not only a variety of both possible and actual worlds but also the perception and consciousness of characters in these worlds. Hence, media can be understood as "qualia machines," as technologies that allow for the production of subjective experiences within the affordances and limitations posed by the conventions of their specific mediality. This edited collection examines the transmedial as well as the medium-specific strategies employed by the verbal representations characteristic for literary texts, the verbal-pictorial representations characteristic for comics, the audiovisual representations characteristic for films, and the interactive representations characteristic for video games. Combining theoretical perspectives from analytic philosophy, cognitive theory, and narratology with approaches from phenomenology, psychosemiotics, and social semiotics, the contributions collected in this volume provide a state-of-the-art map of current research on a wide variety of ways in which subjectivity can be represented across conventionally distinct media.
Book Synopsis Storyworlds Across Media by : Marie-Laure Ryan
Download or read book Storyworlds Across Media written by Marie-Laure Ryan and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proliferation of media and their ever-increasing role in our daily life has produced a strong sense that understanding media—everything from oral storytelling, literary narrative, newspapers, and comics to radio, film, TV, and video games—is key to understanding the dynamics of culture and society. Storyworlds across Media explores how media, old and new, give birth to various types of storyworlds and provide different ways of experiencing them, inviting readers to join an ongoing theoretical conversation focused on the question: how can narratology achieve media-consciousness? The first part of the volume critically assesses the cross- and transmedial validity of narratological concepts such as storyworld, narrator, representation of subjectivity, and fictionality. The second part deals with issues of multimodality and intermediality across media. The third part explores the relation between media convergence and transmedial storyworlds, examining emergent forms of storytelling based on multiple media platforms. Taken together, these essays build the foundation for a media-conscious narratology that acknowledges both similarities and differences in the ways media narrate.
Download or read book Imagining Transmedia written by Ed Finn and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2024-04-23 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the blurring of media forms—transmedia—became the default for how we experience narratives, and how that cultural transformation has redefined the worlds of education, entertainment, and our increasingly polarized public discourse. Over the past decade, the power of narrative has been unleashed with awesome and terrifying consequences, and it has been consumed in its blurred media forms by millions of people as news, entertainment, and education. Imagining Transmedia, edited by Ed Finn, Bob Beard, Joey Eschrich, and Ruth Wylie, explores the surprising ways that narratives working across media forms became the default grammar for both media consumption and personal expression and how multiplatform storytelling creates new media literacies and modes of civil discourse. Understanding this shift reveals transmedia as an essential building block of media literacy today. Transmedia is how we create, interpret, and participate in our increasingly mediated society. It extends beyond popular culture into professional and public spheres while, at the same time, it fuels the misinformation and polarization that have contributed to America’s fraying civic discourse. Reaching beyond traditional academic analyses, this probing collection of essays and conversations features transmedia practitioners sharing their experiences and inviting readers to imagine the types of multimodal stories and experiences they might create. Prioritizing conversation over a single unified theory, each section of this volume pairs thematically linked essays from international contributors with a dialogue between authors to create an accessible, practical synthesis of ideas.
