It will have to adapt to reality, which is why I absolutely agree with your point about fan-created content; question is, as always, how much freedom you will allow the fans to have with regards to your property. Still - and now I'm being idealistic again - if you adapt Jeffs Swiss Cheese model, i.e. purposefully leaving holes in your story, where you know the boundaries of the holes but allow the users to fill the holes in their way, then it might be manageable. <br /><br />And yes, it should not be the same person(s) producing everything from A to Z; the same team, with the same grasp of the story world, yes, but not the ones who've just rendered the last episode after 2 months of day-and-night-editing :)Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17511368249566166130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15831620.post-56441170665993085572011-01-03T15:56:07.659+02:002011-01-03T15:56:07.659+02:00I totally agree with the slow-burn idea but I susp...I totally agree with the slow-burn idea but I suspect it's very difficult to pull off in practice. It's not only moving the producers/creators/distributors away from "campaigns" it's also about audiences migrating to new shiny projects.<br /><br />It's also a problem for indies who will find their resources and enthusiasm stretched to breaking point. How many filmmakers are sick of their movie once it's finally finished editing?<br /> <br />I think the trick to doing this successfully is to allow fans to create their own content between the "official" content. It shows the original creators where fan enthusiasm lies and allows resources to be directed accordingly.<br /><br />Co-creation also addresses some of those localisation/niche audience groups too because the people implementing the localisation are...well.. local :)Roberthttp://www.transmediastoryteller.comnoreply@blogger.com
