What is Transmedia Storytelling ?

When content communicates, we learn. And for good communication to take place, storytelling works as a sharing strategy. “Transmedia storytelling” is telling a story across multiple media and preferably with a degree of audience participation, interaction or collaboration. The idea is to tickle audience curiosity, suit their learning styles and reach out to them in many ways. As the story is told through each successive media, it heightens the audience’s understanding, enjoyment and affection for the story. To do this successfully, the epitome of the story in each media needs to be satisfying in its own right while enjoyment from all the media should be greater than the sum of the parts. The level of engagement offered by transmedia storytelling is extremely powerful and sticky. In today’s times, with manifold distractions and limited attention span, no single media can satisfy our curiosity or lifestyle. If you got a story to share, just GO FOR IT!

  • Neetu Sharma Joshi

    Executive Director, Navjyoti India Foundation


    It has been more than three years that I have known Rima and have been working very closely with her on one of the most cherished project of Navjyoti India Foundation – Bal Gurukul, a project for promoting value based leadership among children. I have always found her very committed and passionate about her work.

    She worked with children and trained them on filmmaking, theatre, developing a comic book and making animation films on Gurukul. It was such a beautiful experience to see her engagement with children and taking up such initiatives which they had never done before. Her passion for the subject and working with children truly went beyond the training workshops and the way in which she developed rapport with the children was really inspiring.

    Her content understanding, creative representation, child centric approach and the ease with which she can use multiple platforms like theatre, films, comic books, animation, stage shows is very strong and commendable

A Pedagogical Game Changer

As a film practitioner engaged in creation and usage of videos to enhance learning experiences, both, within & outside classrooms I am forever conscious that I do not overate & overstate their impact until I happened to be a part of a scenario which all of you at schools would identify with.
