This document discusses transmedia storytelling and its key concepts. Transmedia storytelling involves telling stories across multiple media platforms in a coordinated way. It is not just adapting a story to different platforms, but leveraging each platform to engage audiences and allow participation. Elements to consider for a transmedia project include audience, delivery mechanisms, purpose, storyworld, and platforms. Transmedia aims to create an immersive experience by dispersing story elements across different screens and spaces. It encourages audiences to move between passive consumption and active participation or contribution to the story. The document provides examples and exercises to illustrate transmedia concepts.

Editor's Notes
- The user experience Screens 1) on a desk: work, research, foraging, email, depth of content, user as editor 2) on the sofa: entertainment, inpsiration, play, relaxing, speed, convenience: user as consumer 3) in your palm: intimate, immediate, locative, mobile (on the go), rapid, user as communicator
- The user experience spaces 1) secret spaces: intimate realtionship. Mobile, sms 2) group spaces: facebook, tagged 3) Publsihing spaces: blogger, flickr, live journal, photo bucket 4) performative spaces: second life, world of warcraft 5) participation spaces: marches, meetings, markets 6) watching spaces: TV, gigs, theatre
- the 100-10-1 rule: of the 100% who consume, 10 will comment and only 1 will really engage. how do you get that 1 to deliver value back to the 100?
- exercise: new groups, 0f 4. use the grid and "throw darts" to pick an items from each column. Come up with a project idea "it's easier to make the interesting feasible than the fesible interesting"
