I think media people know we're good at making content and how we can be smart about how to consume it. It's always a balance.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I just feel like content is content; people want to see it resonate.
Media and technology are our greatest assets. And yet, they are our most undervalued and underused assets. Now when I say that, people look at me like I'm crazy because every young person we know in the world is never without media, ever.
Here's the thing: I think the media underestimates the intelligence of the moviegoer. We need to be fulfilled. People want to sit down and think, and I try to make people think.
I think that the digital media are interesting enough in their own right to be worth originating something in.
To be honest with you, I worry about concentration of ownership in media, where you have a handful of media conglomerates largely controlling what we see, hear and read.
Entertainment works by withholding content with the purpose of increasing its value. And, when you think about it, those two are just vastly different approaches, but they can be bridged.
We have more media than ever and more technology in our lives. It's supposed to help us communicate, but it has the opposite effect of isolating us.
I'm obsessed with media and the way audiences can become creative participants.
The internet creates more of an appetite for media - it doesn't replace physical books, radio or TV.
Collectively, we are in thrall to media - because they deliver to us many of the psychic goods we crave, and we know no other way to live.
