  • Transmedia Muppets: the Possibilities of Performer Narratives
    Volume 5, Issue 2 September 2012 Transmedia Muppets: The Possibilities of Performer Narratives AARON CALBREATH-FRASIEUR, University of Nottingham ABSTRACT This article examines how the Muppets franchise engages with transmedia narratives, their stories moving fluidly between television, film, comics, the internet and more. Rather than highlight the complexity Henry Jenkins (2006), Elizabeth Evans (2011) and others associate with transmedia, an examination of the Muppets offers insight into a mechanism that allows for simpler coherent connection between texts. The Muppets’ ongoing performer narrative challenges the prevailing understanding of transmedia storytelling. As performative characters (singers, actors, performance artists), any text concerned with Muppets, even those in which they act as other characters, becomes part of an overarching Muppet narrative. A high degree of self-reflexivity further supports transmediality, as most Muppet texts contain references to that text as a performance by the Muppets. Thus the comic Muppet Robin Hood and the film Muppet Treasure Island continue the story of the Muppets as further insight is gained into the characters' personalities and ongoing performance history. Examining different iterations of the Muppets franchise illuminates the ramifications of performer narratives for transmedia storytelling. KEYWORDS Transmedia storytelling, franchise, narrative, Muppets, multi-platform For over fifty-five years the Muppets have been appearing in media texts. They began on local television but have spread across most contemporary mediums, with many of these texts part of the over-arching, ongoing Muppet story. This article explores an alternative framework for defining one form of transmedia storytelling. This model suggests a complication in the understanding of transmedia storytelling put forward by Henry Jenkins (2006) and Elizabeth Evans (2011).

Lighthouse design was his father's and his family's profession, so at age seventeen, he enrolled at Edinburgh University to study engineering, with the goal of following in the family business. Lighthouse design never appealed to Stevenson, though, and he began studying law instead. His spirit of adventure truly began to appear at this stage, and during his summer vacations he traveled to France to be around young writers and painters.

  • A C Lash of Steel
    A C lash of Steel discussion guide 1. Xiang’s and Anh’s worldviews are defined by their life experiences and upbringing. How are these worldviews different and how do their expectations of the world and of themselves change through- out the story? 2. How are stories and legends important in this novel and how do they shape the expectations of different characters, particularly Xiang, Anh, Zheng Yi Sao, and Captain Hoa? 3. Xiang and her mother both define themselves and charted their own journey in a time that has specific roles defined for women. What challenges did they face and how were they similar or differ- ent in their approach? 4. What is the significance of family in A Clash of Steel? How does the novel examine blood legacy and family defined by choice? In what ways are the crew of the Huyền Vũ a family? How does Xiang’s idea of the significance of family evolve throughout the novel? 5. In a moment of reflection during a discussion of piracy with Captain Hoa, Xiang asks, “Who is more the thief: the government that preys on its own people, or those who must become thieves in order to survive?” What are the different motivations for piracy within the novel? How does this compare to your previous understanding or expectation of piracy? 6. Many stories have clear-cut interpretations of which characters are good or bad.

Every day, millions tune in to Sesame Street to see one of the world’s most adored and recognizable characters - a furry red monster named Elmo. Yet, with all of Elmo’s fame, the man behind the icon is able to walk down the street without being recognized. Meet Kevin Clash. As a teenager growing up in Baltimore in the 1970s, Kevin had very different aspirations from his classmates—he wanted to be a puppeteer. More specifically, he wanted to be part of Jim Henson’s team, the creative force responsible for delivering the magic of Sesame Street on a daily basis. With a supportive family behind him, Kevin made his dreams come true. Combining amazing archival footage with material from the present day, filmmaker Constance Marks explores Kevin's story in vivid detail and chronicles the meteoric rise of Jim Henson in the process. Narrated by Whoopi Goldberg and including interviews with Frank Oz, Rosie O’Donnell, Cheryl Henson, Joan Ganz Cooney and others, this insightful and personal documentary offers up a rare, behind-the-scenes look at Sesame Street and the Jim Henson legacy.
