Thu Dec 20 23:22:32 GMT 2018




Second CFP - Chapter Proposals for Transmedia Storytelling in Asia and Pacific

An edited volume by Dr Filippo Gilardi and Dr Celia Lam (University of Nottingham Ningbo China).

*Provisional book title*: Transmedia Storytelling in Asia and Pacific Region

*Abstract submission deadline*: 14 January, 2019

*Selection results announced*: 21 January, 2019

*Full chapters due*: Not required until confirmation from the publisher (Palgrave Macmillan)

*Keywords*: China, Asia and Pacific, transmedia storytelling, transmediality, media convergence, transmedia practice, transmedia fiction.


*Call*

This second call follows a first call for chapters for an edited book on Transmedia in Asia and Pacific region aimed at filling in a gap in current research that mostly focuses on work emanating from Europe, the UK and US.

Based on the different submission selected, the book will mostly focuses on the interplay between top-down and bottom-up transmedia practices (Jenkins, 2006), the transcultural dialogue facilitated by transmedia activism, and transmedia as a framework facilitating formal and informal learning.

While we have a broad representation of countries from Asia — China, Malaysia, Cambodia, Indonesia, Thailand, Japan — we are still looking for chapters discussing the above-mentioned topics in South Korea, and countries from the Pacific rim — Australia, New Zealand, and other Pacific Island nations.

*Submission *

Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit on or before 14^January 2019 a 500 word abstract to Filippo Gilardi ((Filippo.gilardi /at/ nottingham.edu.cn) <mailto:(Filippo.gilardi /at/ nottingham.edu.cn)>) and Celia Lam ((celia.lam /at/ nottingham.edu.cn) <mailto:(celia.lam /at/ nottingham.edu.cn)>).
