Types of Transmedia

This is a quick post to join the discussion that's happening across Brooke Thompson's blog and Christy Dena's. I'll expand on it more later at Culture Hacker, most probably next week some time.

My suggestion for naming types of transmedia projects is given in the diagram below. 

The major difference with my approach is that the classification is independent of the motives or timing of the development. Does it matter?

 

By "Narrative Space" I mean the story occupies the same point in the 3D space of this next diagram. Basically, has the same characters, locations and time frame.
