@NeillBlomkamp: I should check that out- what I am attempting to do is communicate/ interact with and make films for the audience with no middle man #
- The App Revolution (in Filmmaking) EXCELLENT
- Hollywood by the numbers
- Bigger than Hollywood (app store)
- 72: Bingewatch. We take on the future of TV again, given the developments and experiments hitting the news. Hanging in the air like a big matzah ball is the question of a catalyst to bring long form video to the age of software. Not just digital production and distribution but an integration of software into the product itself. EXCELLENT
Also:
- 20: Below the (belt)line. Horace and Dan begin a journey through the financial carnival that is Hollywood and talk about the wonders they encounter.
- 21: Negative Costs. Continuing our discussion of the creative side of Hollywood accounting, Dan and Horace take on the way income from movies is distributed and why no movies ever make money. The observations sharpen focus on the over-arching influence distribution has on the creative process.
- 23: Auteur Theory. We touch on writing for movies and compare the collaborative process of "content creation" vs. the "single voice" of an author. If you make software you really should pay attention to how art is made.
- 28: False Profit. Horace interviews writer/producer Dan Abrams. Dan talks us through the budgets and cost structures of independent movies as well as the obstacles to innovation presented by the current industry structure. We talk about some of the new concepts that are emerging as means to overcome these obstacles. We also talk about new forms of distribution and financing that enable long-tail film and TV content.
- 61: Testing the App Supernova: An interview with Maxwell Wessel. Horace interviews Maxwell Wessel, fellow at Clay Christensen's Forum for Growth and Innovation at Harvard Business School. We explore the notion of apps as a disruption for multiple industries, especially entertainment.
- 114: Veronica's Dilemma. Horace and Moisés talk about the major triumphs and minor failures of the Veronica Mars campaign on Kickstarter and kick off a series on The Capitalist's Dilemma.
