LEGO has also become a medium into which a wide number of media franchises, including Star Wars , Harry Potter , Pirates of the Caribbean , Batman , Superman , Lord of the Rings , and others, have adapted their characters, vehicles, props, and settings. The LEGO Group itself has become a multimedia empire, including LEGO books, movies, television shows, video games, board games, comic books, theme parks, magazines, and even MMORPGs (massively multiplayer online role-playing games). LEGO Studies: Examining the Building Blocks of a Transmedial Phenomenon is the fi rst collection to examine LEGO as both a medium into which other fran- chises can be adapted and a transmedial franchise of its own.

"LEGO Shakespeare" evinces interesting modes of articulation between art and industry, production and consumption, high- brow culture and low-brow culture and invites us to study how Shakespeare is digested into and interacts with multi-layered cultural artifacts.

  • Narrativizing LEGO in the Digital Age by Aaron Smith, Aaron.Smith50
    Beyond the Brick: Narrativizing LEGO in the Digital Age By Aaron Smith, [email protected] *Draft, please do not quote or cite without permission *The following is a personal research project and does not necessarily reflect the views of my employer Conference Paper MiT7 Unstable Platforms – The promise and peril of transition 13-15th May 2011 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston, MA Introduction Fantasylands, supernatural environments, and galaxies far far away– LEGO looks a lot different today than when it was patented as a red studded brick in 1958. The physical toy remains an intricate part of the LEGO business, of course, but now so are video games, amusement parks, movies, television shows, and online entertainment. The growing reliance on media communication and media technologies, a process many scholars have dubbed ―mediatization,‖ has powerful implications for LEGO‘s long- established and valued ―system of play.‖1 One effect has been the increasingly important role of narrative within this system—what Stig Hjarvard calls ―narrativization.‖2 Indeed, LEGO box sets increasingly specify narrative roles, conflicts, mythologies, and character bios as part of their intended play. Traditional LEGO building and designing continues to flourish, but while the material toys used to compose the entirety of the LEGO system, they now function as elements within a larger media ―supersystem.‖3 This paper focuses on LEGO‘s strategies for adapting to the digital age by leveraging story worlds around their products and encouraging

  • Overwatch's® Unusual Journey from Esport to LEGO®
    Overwatch’s® Unusual Journey From Esport to LEGO® Set It may surprise you to learn how few video games have made the leap to physical LEGO® theme sets. Despite the major overlap between fans of both hobbies, only about a half-dozen video games have been brickified. That includes LEGO Minecraft, LEGO Super Mario, the mini- packs of LEGO Dimensions (Sonic, Midway, Portal), the recently announced standalone Sonic set, and LEGO Overwatch®. There are always challenges when taking any popular standalone franchise and bringing it into the child-friendly, creativity-empowering world of LEGO theme sets. And Blizzard Entertainment’s Overwatch is a prime example of how that process can work, highlighting a central issue with some existing entertainment properties. Guns and colorful LEGO building bricks don’t usually mix. In fact, the company goes to great lengths to avoid representing modern weapons in any real-world theme sets. So, when the company’s talented designers started contemplating recreating key elements of the Overwatch video game with bricks, they were faced with a problem: How do you turn a hero shooter into something that meshes with the LEGO Group’s family-friendly toys? The solution came by examining the game’s rich backstory and characters, which have evolved to the point of existing beyond the gameplay itself. “When you start talking to people at the LEGO Group about what world this game lives in and what context it lives in, it's a franchise born within a game,” said the LEGO Group’s Sten Funder Lysdahl. “And I think in many ways we can draw similarities to other franchises which also have guns.
