From literary to cinematic, Balzac to the MCU and beyond: the shared universe narrative convention in media with Dr Vincent Tran
In this episode of the HASSCast we speak to Dr Vincent Tran, a recent graduate from Swinburne University of Technology for a PhD spotlight about his thesis A Brief History of the Shared Universe in Popular Culture.
Dr Vincent Tran is an early career researcher conducting research into shared universes across media and history. His research into shared universes covers a wide basis of topics from industry, narratology and fandom with a focus in historical analysis. His PhD thesis “A Brief History of the Shared Universe in Popular Culture” examined the development of the shared universe from the 1800s to contemporary media, examining questions such as: Why has the shared universe been so ubiquitous as a story telling device? Why are shared universes created and consumed?
Vincent has also lectured and taught on a variety of topics in media, from serialisation, world building, transmedia and gaming.
Vincent is the co-editor of the book Televisual Shared Universes Expanded and Converged Storyworlds on the Small Screen, and is currently working on his first book.
