PLAY ROLES DESIGNING TRANSMEDIA
Designed by @CynthiaJabar @poburke @n_aya
STORYWORLD Family
The Storyworld is the universe of an enlarged story based on a synopsis and narrative framework. It encompasses all possible ramifications and constitutes the depth and richness of a transmedia creation, campaign, project or experience.
COMMUNITIES Family
We take into account the users’ habits, needs and expectations. The analysis of the user behavior is essential to the design process and the production. Careful integration of user knowledge and practical usage in the making of the interactive experience empowers users to generate their own creative content.
DESIGN Family
A transmedia experience is meant to be lived, albeit virtually. Both the staging and the artistic directions enliven the experience. The members are translating the visions of the creator into images, apps, graphics, sounds, video and all other necessary forms, bridging the gap between reality and imagination.
GAMEPLAY Family
The game mechanics and the narrative are intricately linked. Not only do the game mechanics encourage and engender user interaction, but they also speak to the spirit of creation and engagement that characterizes the project.
MEDIAFORMS Family (former MULTIPLATFORM)
Digital platforms and all “mediaforms” can be integrated into transmedia experiences, creation and production. Mediaforms encourage users to explore different territories. Some are easily accessible, some should be in real life, and others can put even the biggest geek into a passionate transmedia storyworld. But technology still isn’t the most important character, guess what? Story is more important.
BUSINESS MODELS Family
Finding its roots in the creative industry, a transmedia project is ad-hoc and is meant to be reinvented and reconfigured. Its greatest challenge is thus accommodating diverse contributors and users in the hopes of finding a project that promises sound financial return.
PRODUCTION Family
Professionals from creative industries and their respective organizations work hand-in-hand with collaborators in the conceptualization, the management, and the production of a transmedia project. Thus we are exploring new methods of collaborative work.
