Morphology
transmedial = transmedia (transparent) = trans + media + al
Formed by adding the productive adjectival suffix '-al' to the recognizable base 'transmedia', preserving the meaning 'across media'.
Etymology
Transmedial joins trans- meaning 'across', as in transport, and media meaning 'ways to tell or share things', like medium. So, transmedial describes something that exists or moves 'across' different 'media', for example a story that is a book, a film, and a game.
