I've recently been asked the question to see what would be more financially feasible, shooting a demo for a pitch, or , making a game demo for my pitch that leads into a transmedia property? what would be better? How many people are actually looking for that kind of property now?

The place to discuss, share content and offer tips and advice to OTT - "Over the Top" streaming and Transmedia – the technique of telling a single story or story across multiple platforms including, but not limited to, games, books, events, films and television.
YOOTT (Your Own Over The Top) Network
There's a rise in niche OTT outlets. I'm super intrigued by this space and the ability to go directly to your audience's device, and build your own AVOD app. Anybody here doing or done this?

Transmedia Activism / Nonfiction Transmedia
I think one reason I'm so interested in transmedia is its potential to affect real change. I'm reading Popular Culture and the Civic Imagination: Case Studies of Creative Social Change by Henry Jenkins et all, and it's inspiring to see how people have been using stories in unique ways to create soci...

This is an important topic and great share. I’m not as doom-and-gloom about traditional story telling but I do agree that transmedia story telling has a powerful place in education and cultural impact. Thanks, Ami!

Expand commentIt’s the age old question… how much does a house cost? Well… how big is the house, where is it located, what are the amenities, decor, et al. Like any project it comes down to the ambition of what you are creating and what it’s immediate purpose is. I always recommend making lists of your resources and then penciling out a budget and production schedule and then can make a reasonable assessment of the costs of either project (or any project, for that matter) and make an informed decision.

Expand commentBulent Hasan To be honest, and with respect, the question itself indicates that you are not focused on what you want to create. You can't sell a generality to anyone. A game is not a film is not a series is not a novel is not a comic. I would say focus on what you want to create and what media you want to create it in first, and do that. Worry about transmedia franchise later if you find traction.
