an academic-industry workshop that will take place on *Friday 24th 
November 2017* at *C**orsham Court, Bath Spa University*. Registration 
closes on Monday 20th November.

Transmedia UK: Sector by Sector aims to map the ways in which different 
UK media sectors are now responding to ideas, concepts and pressures of 
transmediality. This academic-industry workshop will identify the 
strategies and principles that now make up the transmedia practices in 
and across online gaming, publishing, mobile media, digital marketing, 
film and television and beyond, examining which practices operate across 
these sectors while exploring what it now means to distinguish between 
storytelling, publishing, interactivity and marketing in today's 
digitally interconnected media environment.

As well as the industry speakers, the workshop will also showcase a 
range of academic perspectives on new developments in transmediality, 
spanning film and television, digital and participatory storytelling, 
heritage, pedagogy, publishing, advertising and marketing, mobile apps 
and virtual environments.
