Efter succéerna Planet Earth – Live in Concert och Planet Earth II – Live in Concert, som upplevts på plats av mer än 50 000 personer enbart i Sverige, fortsätter konsertversionerna av BBC:s prisvinnande naturdokumentärer med Blue Planet II - Live in Concert under början av 2019. Under den fyra år långa inspelningen av Blue Planet II har olika team begett sig ut på 125 expeditioner, besökt 39 länder samt filmat från alla kontinenter och samtliga oceaner. 6000 timmar lades på djuphavsdykning, varav 1000 genomfördes med undervattensfarkoster. Logistiken bakom vissa av dessa expeditioner kan jämföras med en rymdresa – så mycket jobb krävdes. Under processen mötte filmteamet varelser som framstod som så underliga att de verkade komma från en helt annan planet.

  • Tracking the Transmediality of Red Nose Day
    volume 5 issue 10/2016 SMALL CHANGE – BIG DIFFERENCE: TRACKING THE TRANSMEDIALITY OF RED NOSE DAY Matthew Freeman Digital Academy, College of Liberal Arts Bath Spa University Newton Park, Newton St Loe Bath, BA2 9BN United Kingdom [email protected] Abstract: This article analyses transmedia as a non-fictional social phenomenon, discussing the significance of participation, documentary, and community media. Specifically, the article conceptualises transmedia through the lens of charity politics. To do so, I use the Comic Relief charity campaign in the UK to trace how the social traditions, ways of life and sensibilities associated with Red Nose Day have evolved into emerging digital technologies to shape this charity campaign across the borders of multiple media platforms. Embracing how social specificity informs non-fictional transmedia, I position ‘infotainment’ as a key conceptual logic of non- fictional transmedia, showing how audiences follow the ‘ethos’ of Red Nose Day across multiple media. Keywords: Transmedia Storytelling, Non-Fiction, Charity Campaigns, Documentary, Community, Participation, BBC, Red Nose Day 1 Introduction Today’s convergent media industries readily produce stories across multiple media, telling the tales of Batman across comics, film and television, inviting audiences to participate in the Star Wars universe across cinema, novels, the Web, and more. This transmedia phenomenon may be a common strategy in Hollywood’s blockbuster fiction factory, tied up with ideas of digital marketing and fictional world-building, but transmedia is so much more than movie franchises. Yet while scholarship dwells on transmedia’s commercial, global industry formations,1 smaller communities and far less commercial cultures now make new and very different uses of transmedia, in some ways re-thinking transmedia by applying it to non- fictional projects as a socio-political strategy for informing and unifying local communities.

  • Planet Earth Live Och London Calling: Två Unika Tv-Projekt På BBC I Sommar
    2012-04-04 08:45 CEST Planet Earth Live och London Calling: Två unika Tv-projekt på BBC i sommar Under våren och sommaren visar BBC två unika Tv-projekt för tittare över hela världen. London Calling och Planet Earth Live är exempel på brittisk Tv- produktion av yppersta klass och kommer sändas synkroniserat på BBC:s kanaler över hela världen. Under sommaren 2012 vänder världen sina blickar mot London, och BBC firar med London Calling: en unik säsong med program om musiken, konsten, kulturen och historien i den brittiska huvudstaden. Säsongen inleds med tre dagars direktsändningar från drottningens diamantjubileum. Planet Earth Live är den största direktsända naturskildring BBC någonsin genomfört. BBC:s Natural History Unit, teamet bakom dokumentärer som Frozen Planet och Planet Earth, har experimenterat med tekniker och format i över tio år med målet att kunna sända naturdokumentärer av extremt hög kvalité live. 2012 är målet nått. Planet Earth Live kommer följa riktiga djur i vildmarken i tre världsdelar under de första veckorna av deras dramatiska liv. BBC låter helt enkelt naturen skriva manus till en sorts såpa som både pågår och sänds live i hela världen. London Calling sänds mellan juni och augusti. I Norden visas programmen i både BBC Entertainment, BBC HD och BBC World News. Materialet finns också tillgängligt via BBC Global iPlayer. Planet Earth Live sänds i Norden i BBC Knowledge. Mer information om London Calling Livesändningarna från brittiska drottningens diamantjubileum – båtparaden längs Themsen 3 juni, BBC-konserten från Buckingham Palace den 4 och gudstjänsten och processionen genom London den 5 – inleder London Calling-säsongen.
