Abstract
Transmedia scheduling systems and methods are described in which a user interface is generated via a channel engine that includes first and second channels. The channels are based on one or more channel templates stored in a channel database, and are preferably populated with concurrent transmedia stories. Each of the transmedia stories can be based on at least one transmedia object stored in a transmedia database and may be dynamically generated.

A computer-based method of interacting with interactive content, the method comprising:
- detecting, via a media device, contextual information of a user, wherein the contextual information includes at least a geographic location of the user;
- detecting, via a content analysis engine that is coupled with the media device, a media event based on at least the geographic location of the user within the contextual information, wherein the media event comprises an achievement object related to a collectible;
- unlocking, via a media server that is coupled with the content analysis engine, additional interactive content based on the achievement object related to the collectible;
- and
- presenting, via the media device, the unlocked additional interactive content to the user.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium on which are stored software instructions executable by a processor to perform operations comprising:
- detecting, via a media device, contextual information of a user, wherein the contextual information includes at least a geographic location of the user;
- detecting, via a content analysis engine that is coupled with the media device, a media event based on at least the geographic location of the user within the contextual information, wherein the media event comprises an achievement object related to a collectible;
- unlocking, via a media server that is coupled with the content analysis engine, additional interactive content based on the achievement object related to the collectible;
- and
- presenting, via the media device, the unlocked additional interactive content to the user.
