This article analyses transmedia as a non-fictional social phenomenon, discussing the significance of participation, documentary, and community media.Specifically, the article conceptualises transmedia through the lens of charity politics.To do so, I use the Comic Relief charity campaign in the UK to trace how the socials traditions, ways Swivel Cabinet of life and sensibilities associated with Red Nose Day have evolved into emerging digital technologies to shape this charity Dry Bags campaign across the borders of multiple media platforms.

Embracing how social specificity informs non-fictional transmedia, I position ‘infotainment’ as a key conceptual basis of non-fictional transmedia, showing how audiences follow the ‘ethos’ of Red Nose Day across multiple media.
