TRANSMEDIA STORYTELLING

I'm the author of Fantastic Transmedia: Narrative, Play and Memory Across Science Fiction and Fantasy Storyworlds, published by Palgrave-Macmillan in 2015.

​

The book builds on my practical experience working on a range of licensed properties - including Doctor Who, Highlander and Judge Dredd - to advance a comprehensive understanding of transmedia storytelling that can incorporate licensed tie-in work and more loosely connected crossmedia storyworlds alongside more formally integrated transmedia projects.

In the course of the book I analyse in-depth the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Star Wars, Halo, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and The Lord of the Rings. However, I also look at smaller-scale crossmedia projects, such as the work of Urban Angel and Andrea Phillips' America 2049.

​

As well as my own experience working on transmedia properties, Fantastic Transmedia draws extensively on my previous publications and presentations on the subject.
