Fandom

Knowledge Communities: Fans meet together online to share interests and discuss them in depth. 

 Here is are some examples from a Batman fan forum. Fans come here to discuss anything related to Batman and share thoughts and opinions on the different films.

Transmedia: When a text is produced in a number of different forms such as film, animations and comic books, each of which adds a different element to the final product which cannot be fully understood on their own. 

Social and Cultural Convergence: Where audiences come together socially online from all over the globe and start to make things which they share online. 

Cultural Production: Fan websites and material which can be edited. 

This is an example of cultural production as the fans have produced an entire replica movie.

Collective Thinking: When fansites have sets of rules on what can or cannot be said and people can gain a 'fan status'. 

An example of collective thinking is shown here in the comments on the video and it is clear that the makers of the live action film will have gained a 'fan status'.
