Workshop - Developing Principles for Transmedia Writing and Comics Specificity

The main focus of this workshop will be the designing of adaptive principles for transmedia creative content development, using comics as a forum for discussing the evolving specificity of form and medium potential from the perspective of a writer. The three phases of the workshop will be: Transmedia Principles (media
and transmedia, transmedia writing, adaptive principles), Comics Specificity (comics, comics writing, comics and transmedia) and a conclusion. Across the workshop I will be utilising my own research as part of the structure (e.g. The Fallow Narratives and The Pier comic), but will focus on how the attendees build their ideas as well. As such, the attendees will leave with ideas for designing a set of adaptive principles for creative content for transmedia development, as well as ways of thinking about medium potential and transmedia writing, and potential (written) creative content from ideas generated in the workshop.
