Power to the Pixel

OK, campers.
We are here again with round two.
The from here to awesome site, has posted another video for your education.
You should take note, particularly to this discussion, because these are the very topics that the WGA was striking over. Saying that the old distribution system was nowhere near as important as the online distribution market,(actually the word I got was Dead but I can't quote)


I find myself asking;
What is it that filmmakers want? We want a new working model for reaching the audience directly. (See video below.)
Someone is going to have the clout and money to organize a working model for this.
But what big studio conglomerate do you want that to be?

I thought so.
Me neither.

Are we filmmakers paying attention? How many of you out there are listening?
Did he really just say that? and Yes I even checked my dictionary, he's right.
You should listen to what these filmmakers are saying. If you're like me you'll be looking for answers in some new places.

From the from here to awesome site:

In an effort to share information FHTA will be organizing a number of panels, keynotes, and tutorials. If you have knowledge around a certain subject and would like to share it with the FHTA audience please let us know.

Our conference / educational partners are the Workbook Project and Power to the Pixel. PTTP is a gathering of filmmakers, technologists, and media creators that takes place multiple times a year in various locations around the world. The Workbook Project is a free resource project for filmmakers that attempts to bridge the gap between tech and filmmaking. Together PTTP and the WBP we will be releasing a large volume of FREE educational content to FHTA’s global audience. The following is a glimpse of things to come.





You guys keep pushing, and you could make things better for a lot of people.
This is one filmmaker that's listening.
