Multiplatform Media in Mexico is the first book to treat the exciting interconnected fields of
cinema television and internet in Mexico over the last decade fields that combine to be
called multiplatform media. Combining industrial analysis of a major audiovisual field at a
time of growth and change with close readings of significant texts on all screens acclaimed
author Paul Julian Smith deftly details these new audiovisual trends.The book includes
perspectives on local reporting on the ground as covered in the chapter documenting media
response to the 2017 earthquake. And for the first time in this field the book draws
throughout on star studies tracing the distinct profiles of actors who migrate from one medium
to another. As a whole Smith's analyses illustrate the key movements in screen media in one of
the world's largest media and cultural producing nations. These perspectives connect to and
enrich scholarship across Latin American North American and global cases.
