Robert Pratten:  "I created the diagram above in preparation for my talk at Neuchâtel film festival next week.  It probably needs a little explaining" ...

Brad Tollefson's curator insight, July 9, 2015 12:38 AM

The three Cs are:

Characters – the importance of storyConvenience – the importance of getting the right content to the right people at the right timeCommunity – the importance of connecting fans and rewarding them.

At the intersections we see the actions and functions we must support:

Characters+Convenience – the personalization of the story experience for each person based on their relationship to the worldConvenience+Community – the continued “personalization” but in a broader sense as applied to audience segments. For example an audience team collaborates to unlock content that only they can see. Also at this intersection is the ability to share content and refer friends to the worldCommunity+Characters – this is the relationship between the community and the world. Creators should provide opportunities to strengthen the relationship through procedures and technology to allow fan contributions, character interactions and such like.

The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:


Robert Pratten:  "Transmedia storytellers will often include live events and real world actions in their experiences. As a company that wants to blur the boundary between fiction and reality, we  [Transmedia Storyteller] spend a lot of time thinking how creators should tackle this."

Debbie Elicksen 's curator insight, June 19, 2014 11:22 PM

The story should really be the focus in the middle, then it branches out into sub-stories -- that both stand alone and also pull more depth into the main story at the same time.

Dr. Pamela Rutledge's comment, May 27, 2013 4:26 AM
LucaVanin - It can have the same connotation of untruth in the west; just depends on context (and who's paying!) In Entertainment, of course, no one worries about superficial truth. Even (especially?) in Reality TV. What matters is the universal truth that stories can deliver. That is the real litmus test of truth.
Dolly Bhasin 's curator insight, June 1, 2013 1:06 AM

Excellent article, a must ready for digital story tellers of the 21st century!
