I have just published a post on our TOOLS blog about the current discussions over Mark Gill’s talk at the Los Angeles Film Festival’s Financing Conference.

I am consumed with how to get from here (between past and future models, looming recession, endless noise, very little signal, embattled communities) to there (is there a there there?) I know this is all terribly obtuse but I’m figuring this stuff out too! Bottom line: I know that organizations like Shooting People are going to have to be at the forefront of experimentation, community building and innovation. It’s daunting but I know so many amazing people working hard to figure this out and we have tools and resources like never before. As William Gibson said: “The future has already happened, it is just unequally distributed.”
