Digital Creators and Audiences investigates contemporary practices of production, distribution and consumption associated with digital platforms and technologies. We examine the sites where new media content is created - bespoke software packages, content sharing websites, third-party actors and specialists, sponsors and social media influencers - and where and how audiences experience digital media - smartphones, platforms, social networks, games consoles, and more. We analyse how these spaces and interfaces structure the making and increasing professionalisation of online creative content, audience experiences, and how they afford and structure interaction and encourage participation.
