À propos de cet audio
The purpose of this study is to understand how a new medium (Facebook) is used by Twilight literature fans and how users are gratified through their use of the new medium. Fans are categorized in one of two forms (consumer-fans and producer-fans) and a two by two matrix is developed to categorize these two fan types. In relation to media, the age of a targeted audience determines the content. It has however become a blurred line in literature and film, in which case content that was intended for a younger audience is attracting the attention of an older audience (and vice versa). It is a thin line between the content consumption of an adult and that of an adolescent in many senses. Crossover fiction is defined as a work of fiction that has been intended for one audience but has spread to unintended audiences. The Twilight Saga is a prime example of crossover fiction and how it is able to spread beyond its targeted audience.
This study is significant because the Twilight phenomenon is increasing in size as the movies continue to be adapted from the novels.
