I find it really interesting that most movies turn into computer games, but Max Payne has gone from a game to a movie – I’m looking forward to seeing it!

Ah the power of Twitter. Great meeting you this morning – and valuable post. Something I’m definitely going to consider with future projects.

Hey Tim

Transmedia planning has been around for a good long while, it’s not just about using multiple channels, it’s about how you can create a storytelling experience where the participant is involved in the narrative as they interact.

Here’s a couple of presentations that bring it to life:

and to address Wade’s point Jane McGonical (a bit of a hero of mine…really!) has a couple of great presentations on slideshare too that you might want to check out…I posted her thinking on happiness as the new capital thinking here http://katiechatfield.wordpress.com/2008/05/23/happiness-hacking/

and I see she gave the Keynote at SXSW 2008 http://www.slideshare.net/avantgame/alternate-realities-jane-mcgonigal-keynote-sxsw-2008

Wow, what an interesting term, and introduced via Twitter, love twitter.

I’m not sure if that’s amazing or scary. I guess it depends on the motive of the company/message/intention?

The companies are pushing out so much data, or sucking people in soo deeply to consume so much.

Peace,
Wade
