Cross-Media as a Multi-Platform Narrative Interaction Form

Abstract

Cinema often uses the novels in the scenarios it creates while constructing the audiovisual narrative structure. After the cinema, on television, many television movies and television series get the subject of adapting novels. Today, a story and a novel are opened in many media platforms, and each new text that emerged with this expansion adds its own value to the narrative. In the ideal form, which is also referred to as the concept of cross-media narrative, the presentation of the same work in different formats in multiple media can be seen. The study tries to analyze the narrative in the context of the transformation of the media between the media, narrative characteristics, the use of time and space in the context of each narrative's unique contributions and deficiencies. In this context, the installation of "cross-media" narrative platforms within the scope of multi-media usage is examined. © 2021, IGI Global.
