Transmedia Journalism in Principle « Transmedia Journalism
We journalists need to find the public across a very diverse mediascape rather than expecting them to come to us. The days of the captive journalism audience are over, and if we hope to serve our ideals of democracy, human rights, environment and positive social change, we need to find a broad public. To make our stories salient we need to engage the public in ways that fit those particular media.

Photograph: Felix Clay for the Guardian Few documents are more carefully guarded in newspaper offices than the newslist. The mixture of what's coming up and what the editors are hoping for can be so valuable that rivals have even been known to pay for a sneaky look .
Transmedia storytelling: más allá de la ficción. « Hipermediaciones
Cada vez que se habla de “transmedia storytelling” terminamos mencionando increíbles experiencias crossmedia nacidas al calor de las nuevas series televisivas ( 24, Lost , etc.), largometrajes ( Matrix, Star Wars , etc.) o literarias ( Harry Potter, Crepúsculo , etc.). Los libros sobre narrativas transmediáticas -a partir de los textos de Henry Jenkins como “ Convergence Culture “- también suelen estar centrados en las producciones de ficción. Y sin embargo… Podemos definir a una narrativa transmediática a partir de dos variables: - La historia se cuenta a través de varios medios y plataformas : a diferencia de los relatos monomediáticos, en las narrativas transmediáticas el relato puede comenzar en un medio y continuar en otros. Podría decirse que el relato aprovecha lo mejor de cada medio para contarse y expandirse.
Product Description Convergence Journalism teaches journalists how to make the most of digital technology to tell their stories effectively across multiple media platforms—in print, audio, video, and online. Janet Kolodzy demonstrates how to organize and coordinate fundamental building blocks—planning, reporting, and producing—for successful multimedia storytelling. This book identifies two types of journalistic stories: the short-form, or immediate, quick turn-around story, once called "spot news," and the longer-form news feature that will involve a narrative and interactive "arc." It addresses multi-media and cross-media thinking, organizing, reporting and producing for both types of news stories. Kolodzy’s approach focuses on storytelling principles, not just specific technical practices, providing journalists with the skills to use today’s technology and the tools to adapt their writing and reporting to future developments.

THE SHIFTING CROSS-MEDIA NEWS LANDSCAPE - Journalism Studies
The article offers new insights for democracy and for news producers by mapping the use and users of today's cross-media news landscape, as the everyday consumption of news across the range of available news media and formats is shifting reflecting transformations of technology, culture and lifestyles. Theoretically the study is anchored in Habermas's notion of the public sphere, and its recent reconceptualizations in theories of “cultural citizenship”, “civic agency” and “public connection”. The project operationalizes these theories through the concept of users' perceived “worthwhileness” of news media, a user-anchored concept which incorporates the different functionalities of the situational cross-media use of news by citizen/consumers in everyday life.

I've previously suggested that one major way to change the opinion of journalism educators and professionals is to quit using the word convergence so much, since it unfortunately has taken on negative connotations in a journalism sense and has become meaningless by being used to describe a variety of activities, not online transmedia journalism but the other corporate cost-cutting measures that I describe above. In that August post, I wrote, "The problem isn't convergence. It's our inability to find precision in our language to define what convergence is in the journalism setting." Covington writes that "the Newsplex philosophy, boiled down to a sentence, is that news organizations will be best served if they focus on stories--not delivery platforms." In a world where distilling ideas down to a sentence gives them the most resonance, the modern sound byte society, I think this phrase is pretty well-served as the philosophy of how to tell a transmedia news story in general.Journalism is on a fast-paced, transformative journey, its destination still unknown. That the Web and other media technologies are affecting mightily the practice of journalism is beyond dispute. Less clear is any shared vision of what the future holds. Newsrooms are being hollowed out, and editors who resist such cutbacks are losing their jobs. Digital video cameras and tape recorders replace reporters' notebooks as newspapers—and other news organizations—train staff in multimedia storytelling. In this issue, words about journalists' experiences in the digital era transport our vision forward, while our eye takes us on a visual voyage back to a time when newspapers wove communities together.
