    I love hearing from Shannan because she's just so enlightening! She just gets right into the techincal side of her work and it all just seems so straight forward and logical.

    Am glad she said brand and audience and not changing your story but looking for where it fits 😊
    Because as a writer I don't mind criticism but I still wanna write stories that are true to me.

    I will absolutely give Shannan 100% of my attention anytime she's on this channel. Love seeing her -- she's knowledgeable and she's able to explain the complexities of the industry.

    Wow wow wow. Pitching to networks is super easy, barely an inconvenience.

    This was very useful. I love the people who lay it down directly with no spin or justifications, they just say "Hey, we chase trends, that's what we do. That's how we choose projects and if you look at our output, you can see tropes and themes." But she basically makes the whole studio thing fucking exhausting. I don't know if I want to tailor my creative focus on someone else's quarterly projections just for a paycheck. Sounds like the studios are where you go to pitch your own reject ideas based on which house likes the taste and let them run with it while you take home the sales price and (hopefully) a few points.

    She seems very sharp.

  • @lacolem1
    @lacolem1 Год назад +1

    I knew PRECISELY what era of Syfy she was referring to (Eureka-ish) without her naming a show, which is exactly the kind of branding she’s talking about

  • @Free-JackWolff

    This is an important thing to know.

    Disney execs, listening to this: “ohhhhhhhhh”

  • @DANTICVS
    @DANTICVS Год назад +1

    Pedantic but, "The way words are pronounced is sometimes based on faulty reasoning. “Biopic” looks like it is in the same family as “myopic”, but it isn't. It's “bio” - for biographical - plus “pic” for picture.Mar 22, 2021"

    • @Theomite
      @Theomite Год назад

      Don't care. I'm still gonna say "by-op-ic." We say "by-OG-rah-fee" not "bio-grafee" so I'm keeping the "y" sound.

    AI is a lot more effective at following and predicting trends and coming up with variations on sucessfull storylines that a network might want to duplicate. AI will also be better equiped to absorb and study all the script elements and transpose them to the new projects.

    • @dplj4428
      @dplj4428 Год назад

      AI will be so darn good at tweaking our emotions, networks won't need writers/ actors/ marketing...okay. Is that your premise?
