Susan Resnick West: "Over the past two years, we have been designing an innovation process we call “Think & Do.” These 6-hour workshops provide a formal but atypical ideation process through which people tackle provocative questions and develop new products and collaborations." [Co-Authored by Erin Reilly, Jake de Grazia]
The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
An in-depth look at the development of USC’s Annenberg Innovation Lab's (AIL) new innovation process called Think & Do. It looks like transmedia projects are natural outcomes of these collaborations. Plus, there's a great resource list at the end of the paper for those wishing to try it themselves.

The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
James Marshall: "As the title implies and the author asserts, this is first and foremost a scholarly work that targets the use of transmedia storytelling in higher education. The book delivers on that commitment, and provides much in the way of theory and concept to ignite the reader’s thinking around the topic."

Robert Pratten: 'Simple one-sheet to help transmedia storytellers present their projects. The aim is to get some consistency of presentation so that those listening can "get it"'
The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
Many thanks to Robert Pratten for another great transmedia resource.

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.

Lance Weiler: "Developing an understanding of code is a valuable skill. In fact its now a 21st century storytelling reality. While it’s not critical for you to rush off and learn how to code, it wouldn’t hurt to become more familiar with the terminology, process and realities of producing digital / interactive projects."

Michael Epstein and Mike Knowlton: "Transmedia writer and director Lance Weiler predicts that a “more social, more connected, more personalized wave of media” is coming, in stride with the platforms and practices of the new generation. But, like any new media form, there will probably be a lot of borrowing from older forms and audiences will take a while to warm up."
