"Hangout” With Luisa Dantas This Thurs, Feb. 21st

As we shift focus here at Land of Opportunity to develop our interactive online media platform, we’re delving headfirst (with fingers crossed) into using cutting-edge transmedia. This week, Luisa Dantas joins a panel of media insiders for Interacting With Transmedia: An InterActs Live Google Hangout, an online roundtable hosted by NAMAC and The Daily Dot. The hangout will investigate best media practices and seek to answer the question: What is transmedia? Join Luisa and a team of innovative media artists, filmmakers, internet enthusiasts, gamers, and funders, as they explore multiple points of entry for understanding the transmedia landscape and what it means for the continued evolution of media properties. Tune in with us Thurs. Feb. 21st, from 2-3:30 pm CT, 3-4:30 pm EST by clicking here. Post questions for panelists via Twitter with hashtag #InterActs.

Panelists:

- Henry Jenkins (Moderator), USC Provost’s Professor of Communication, Journalism and Cinematic Arts; Author of Convergence Culture

- Nuno Bernardo, CEO & Founder, beActive Media

- Jo Ellen Green Kaiser, Executive Director, The Media Consortium

- Luisa Dantas, Director/Producer, Land of Opportunity

- Ingrid Kopp, Director of Digital Initiatives at Tribeca Film Institute

- Danielle Riendeau, Blogger for KillScreen, Professor of Interactive Storytelling at Northeastern University, Communications Officer for ACLU-NorCal

- Marc Smolowitz, Director, Producer, Executive Producer, Documentary Filmmaker
