«Building upon ground breaking books by two of the editors, this rich and varied collection threatens to inaugurate a new wave of scrutiny to address the new modes of electronic audiovisual aesthetics. Previous writing about 'transmedia' has often been theoretically limited and deviled by shallow analysis. This book provides a much needed remedy. Vernallis, Rogers and Perrott have assembled an essential collection covering the diversity of contemporary interrelated media fields and creative practices. It poses acute questions about existing categories of understanding and analysis while offering new directions for thinking about current pervasive audiovisual culture.»

«Today, we live in a thoroughly transmedia age. Audiovisual expression extends over movies, television series, music videos and commercials; not to mention the way it influences such other realms as designer clothing and toys. This splendid volume takes up the full range of creativity across media today, ranging from studies of how commercial pressures shape media products all the way to celebrations of 'color magic' and 'audiovisual bliss' in new media productions.»

«How do you create a 'style' when you work across media as diversified as film, television, fashion design, opera, commercials, virtual reality and immersive environments? Rather than transmedial auteurist styles, should we talk of a new, intensified aesthetics characterizing the whole of transmedial production today? These are the kind of key questions that this shimmering volume addresses through a series of incisive, illuminating texts.»
