WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT –

I am gonna get on my soap box for a hot minute.  There have been several projects revolving around crowd sourcing the ideation process for story.  Where the audience can help drive the narrative.  I think this is a gimmick worth passing on.  There is something intrinsic about the creator/audience dynamic that is lost when everyone is invited into the process.  Not to mention the idea of an auteur of a vision that is singular.   Now, some will say that there is a lot of crap on the market now and maybe the audience can do better.  While there is a lot of crap in the marketplace there has also never before been as much amazing material as well.  I will rely on an old adage from another field to sum it up best– ‘too many cooks in the kitchen’ equals trouble.
