I’ve revived my own interest in filmmaking, specifically non-fiction/ documentary films. From contacts at DirtyHarrysPlace and other websites, I’ve started to network with others with similar interests.

I’m troubled by one problem that seems to dog us, and it’s the question of how to conquer or replace Hollywood. It seems that many think the only way to do this is to simply produce films that use the same delivery system which the industry uses. I’m not completely sure of it, but it seems like we may be missing the importance of multi-media or interactive platforms as well. My own preference has started to turn towards producing digital content which can be experienced via web delivery. It isn’t as if the Left hasn’t discovered this channel, but it does seem as if the web is much more responsive to market forces and its a more competitive landscape than the cineplex or cable channel environments.

It will be interesting to hear from some conservatives and producers regarding their willingness to take product like mine and promote it as interactive entertainment/commentary, and not simply one-way fare competing head-to-head with industry blockbusters or shallow, loss leader documentaries.
