Maurice Vaughan Funny thing, there's actually no such thing as a "transmedia producer" from the initial stage. Transmedia is something that happens after you are successful in one media, then expand into another. IMO, the whole "designing worlds" idea is absurd for screenwriters who are just going to see their script to someone else... It's creative bubble gum IMO. And for a producer, work the numbers and issues out of trying to feed more than one media at a time and you'll understand why the only time it's been attempted was by a Japanese anime company who failed at it...

Thanks for the insight, Shadow Dragu-Mihai. I don't make transmedia projects as a screenwriter, but I put a note/page in my pitch material letting producers, directors, etc. know there's potential for transmedia and merchandise.
