We develop compelling intellectual property and distribute it across traditional and nontraditional channels including books, collaborative web fiction, and social media. Our stories are enriched, refreshed, and socially shared by our online readers, while the readers who encounter our stories in print can further immerse themselves in the cross-media narrative by joining their fellow readers online to discuss, expand, and celebrate the stories we tell.
At the heart of our company is an expanding circle of experienced writers, artists, developers, and producers who are equally comfortable with traditional and brand-new forms of storytelling. We also work with major publishing and media companies, ensuring the strongest possible marketing and distribution for our content.
Above all, we believe that great stories can survive—and thrive—by finding their readers where they are: in bookstores, on websites, on cell phones, and in new media forms that are only just beginning to develop.
Our current work is divided into four areas:
- Develop original multimedia properties. Our first property, The Amanda Project, launched in Fall 2009 (see Properties for further details). We will be announcing two new projects in the second half of 2010.
- Consult with publishing and media companies to expand and extend their existing series and/or brands into fully-integrated transmedia properties.
- Work with authors and illustrators to support and develop their original multimedia work.
- Use The Amanda Project model to work with existing communities to deepen their online engagement and create content—digital and print—informed by the web experience.
