Remediation

Remediation is when the use of one medium or a idea that originated in another area, such as a radio idea being used in a film or a television show. Sometimes this doesn't always work out for the best as something which works well in one medium does not mean it will work in another and could fail miserably though other times it could work even better than the original idea it spawned from.

Two terms that were brought up were Immediacy and Hypermediacy which I will talk about here.

Immediacy is where media tries to make it seem like it isn't media at all for example Tim Bradstreet who done art for the comic "The Punisher" and "HellBlazer" its a drawing but done in a way which makes it look like its a real photo. Here's a example

Hypernediacy is were the media makes it very clear that something isn't real at all, I guess a silly example of this is "Last Action Hero" film where Jack Slater and Arnie who plays himself in the film one role is were he is a Big action hero in films and the other role is how he is in real life.
