  • Crossmedia Adaptation and the Development of Continuity in the Dc Animated Universe
    “INFINITE EARTHS”: CROSSMEDIA ADAPTATION AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONTINUITY IN THE DC ANIMATED UNIVERSE Alex Nader A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2015 Committee: Jeff Brown, Advisor Becca Cragin © 2015 Alexander Nader All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeff Brown, Advisor This thesis examines the process of adapting comic book properties into other visual media. I focus on the DC Animated Universe, the popular adaptation of DC Comics characters and concepts into all-ages programming. This adapted universe started with Batman: The Animated Series and comprised several shows on multiple networks, all of which fit into a shared universe based on their comic book counterparts. The adaptation of these properties is heavily reliant to intertextuality across DC Comics media. The shared universe developed within the television medium acted as an early example of comic book media adapting the idea of shared universes, a process that has been replicated with extreme financial success by DC and Marvel (in various stages of fruition). I address the process of adapting DC Comics properties in television, dividing it into “strict” or “loose” adaptations, as well as derivative adaptations that add new material to the comic book canon. This process was initially slow, exploding after the first series (Batman: The Animated Series) changed networks and Saturday morning cartoons flourished, allowing for more opportunities for producers to create content. References, crossover episodes, and the later series Justice League Unlimited allowed producers to utilize this shared universe to develop otherwise impossible adaptations that often became lasting additions to DC Comics publishing.

  • Fiction As a Brand – a Discussion on Application of Popular Brand Management Theories in the Creative Industry
    Zeszyty NaukoweMaciej Politechniki D. Sobociński Częstochowskiej Zarządzanie Nr 27 t. 2 (2017) s. 136–146 dostępne na: http://www.zim.pcz.pl/znwz7 t. 11 FICTION AS A BRAND – A DISCUSSION ON APPLICATION OF POPULAR BRAND MANAGEMENT THEORIES IN THE CREATIVE INDUSTRY Maciej D. Sobociński Czestochowa University of Technology Faculty of Management Abstract: Many reports indicate that the creative industries are an important part of the global economy. While some examples of popular brands of movies, books or computer games, they are not widely discussed, and their specifics differ greatly from other goods and services. This article attempts to study the application of the concept of brand extensions, presenting different ways of brand building on selected examples from the creative industry. Author also highlights other issues related to brands in this industry that require further analysis. Keywords: brand, brand extension, creative industry, film industry, video games, transmedia storytelling DOI: 10.17512/znpcz.2017.3.2.13 Introduction Keller (Keller 2011) indicates that basically everything can be a brand, including people, organizations, ideas. In the field of entertainment, he gives examples of movie characters including Austin Powers, Batman and Harry Potter (additionally he presents the case of Star Wars franchise as a brand). The main implied reason for treating those fictional characters as brands is their general recognition, which causes the audience to follow movie sequels, referred in the book as “brand extensions”. In the Polish edition of his book, the editors try to give examples of Polish movie series in the form of Vabank1 and Sami swoi2. While those movies clearly follow the idea of using known characters in sequels, something seems wrong with this comparison.
