My essay outline is basically to discuss the process and aim of my remediation, how changing the text from a TV series to a series of newspaper articles altered the roles of the different media 'actors' that I had identified in assignment one and how the finished product impacted upon the meaning of the text and its reception.
I write about some of the differences between the two mediums of television and newspaper and make reference to McLuhan's concept of "hot" and "cool" media and the challenge of adapting a product made for a medium that is highly collaborative, multi-layered and visceral and successfully remediating it into a medium that is quite singular, independent and focused on information needs rather than entertainment needs.
