Ideally a budding transmedia creator would be an intern on a couple of projects and learn how to do it from the inside there. If not, strike out on his/her own; my point being that if you have a project you've dreamt of doing for aeons and that would totally shatter you should something go awry, I'd totally suggest you'd either read up on all possible pitfalls or try a couple of other projcts first, to iron out all possible wrinkles.<br /><br />Siobhan, Michel was talking about there being three stages that everything goes through; the Rebel stage, i.e. Us vs Them, the Pioneer stage with budding storytelling models, growing acceptance, best practices etc and finally the Business phase, where one can start to see revenue as an accepted part of the marketplace.Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17511368249566166130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15831620.post-88452009992084315562011-11-08T14:15:33.371+02:002011-11-08T14:15:33.371+02:00thanks for the good thoughts Simon!
I'm likel...thanks for the good thoughts Simon!<br /><br />I'm likely catching your first point out of context so I'd love to know more about Michel Reilhac's Rebel Stage. My sense from working with many traditional content producers is that there is a danger to an Us/Them binary as it has the potential to reinforce anxieties that many trad creators feel in the digital space. And I've been hearing that anxiety for the last decade. I would rather work with a model that looks ahead to 2015 when transmedia has become integrated as a strategy & practice for productions where fitting. And work with a model that recognizes how the skills & expertise of trad content creators translate into transmedia work. I'm all for bridges rather than barriers!siobhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17190723606074451446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15831620.post-52464497843403747292011-11-08T02:49:02.018+02:002011-11-08T02:49:02.018+02:00Great stuff as usual, Simon.

I guess I follow too much the old Preston Sturgess motto in which he sincerely believed which ever idea he was currently working on was his best idea yet. Even if you lose out on the rights scenario, throwing passion into your work in the very least has the benefit of elevating your craft, and potentially your street cred (as long as you stay out of scenarios where you cannot talk about your work). I hate the idea of people getting stuck into a level of passionless mediocrity because they are afraid that someone might pull the rug out from under them somehow, rather than push their craft to a level where it needs to be in order to be good enough to build a fan base upon.carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13890187523341842962noreply@blogger.com
