BAVC Producers Institute...Day #1
WOW...a day filled with creativity and collaboration. It's tough to get too specific as to what exactly we are doing at the 10 day BAVC Producers Institute because our project is still evolving with all the creative input, but basically we are here to develop a stand alone website partnered with "The Way We Get By" film website that will be an amazing social community to bring together troops, friends and family of troops, and troop supporters in exciting new relationships.
In this photo Wendy Levy, Director of Creative Programming at BAVC lays out the entire 10 days to us and kick starts our creativity. The thing you should know about Wendy is her energy is infectious. She could be explaining to us how we were all going to be digging ditches all week, and we would have been clamoring for shovels. If this next 10 days is a fraction of what she has planned for us all... it will be amazing!
The most exciting part is, as I said, yesterday our project idea was still evolving...by this coming Friday we will be pitching a prototype of this website to potential funders. Knowing that in the next six days we will be designing and building a working prototype of yesterday's idea and building a presentation to pitch this website to funders is pretty crazy. Yes, I will be drinking a lot of Starbucks coffee conventiently located on the first floor of the BAVC building.
Today (Day #2) is all about getting our minds thinking of the future. Where are documentaries heading? What will a documentary look like in 10 years? And how will it be distributed with all the new media technology changing at such an incredible pace? We have the opportunity to sit in on some incredible panels today with some of the most cutting edge people in the new media technology field trying to answer those exact questions. If they come up with anything solid, I'll pass it along tomorrow. And then Sunday the real fun begins.
More blogging, photos, and video to come...
