Archiving Transmedia - What happens when the platforms you use to tell a story go away?

Archiving Transmedia - What happens when the platforms you use to tell a story go away? | Transmedia: Storytelling for the Digital Age | Scoop.it
The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:


Mike Vogel:  "Here’s a dilemma every transmedia producer faces… You discover a new storytelling platform–maybe you get in to their invite-only beta–and you create a story that uses the strengths of that platform. The platform gives you a powerful new way to express yourself interactively, but then something happens. Maybe the startup runs out of funding, gets acquired, or changes their business model. Suddenly the DNA of your story is no longer available to you. Your story can no longer be told."

Indeed... Des réflexions intéressantes que je ne partage qu'en partie s'agissant de la France. Peut-être une question de taille de marché aussi, non ?
