The AI world is going to reduce prices of films and TV show production in extraordinary ways. This is going to result in a massive decentralization of the film industry. Which means...film makers won't need your investment to make content anymore. Lower prices for content, means more experimental and artistic risks can be taken. Creating new genres of stories in more styles than we've never thought possible. This is a massive power move away from top down, industry control. Any distribution company, streaming platform or film studio that doesn't make immediate changes now is done for. Things are going to change so quickly. The investment in film now has to be going towards creative and innovative ways to distribute an overwhelming abundance of content, and connect film makers directly to audiences who support them. What will you do when film makers no longer require securing investment for distribution or production? When they no longer require post production expenses or even paying cast and crew? When they don't care if their movie is in a theater or not? The support of niche fan audiences will be the future. Content Creator -> Audience. We've seen this happen before. Books had Kindle self publishing. Music had iTunes. It's moving to film now. Creator focused. The top talent ignoring industry deals and remaining independent. Everything from the last twenty years in regards to the music industry is happening to film.

I find it amazing how often B2B Marketers ignore storytelling principles in favor of jamming as many proof points as possible into a video. As if this video is their singular opportunity to influence a prospect and they must get out as many pieces of information as possible with no thread or sequence. It seems like many are allergic to creating the kinds of content they voraciously consume all day long...as they procrastinate on writing their next completely unrelatable script. Maybe your first audience should be you? Would you watch this if you had no connection to it? There is a fallacy that B2B purchases are not emotional. Like buying a pair of Nike's will have a greater impact on your life & wellbeing than a massive decision committing your team, your colleagues and your customers to a large and expensive multiyear enterprise software solution... If you pick the wrong sneakers, literally no one cares. Not even you probably. Nothing changes. Oh well. If you pick the wrong software solution you can pile long term burdens onto everyone around you while jeopardizing your very job and livelihood. Which one seems more consequential? So yeah, there might be some emotion wrapped up in your decision. Add in the multi-level decision making and emotion becomes even stronger. How many times do humans get together and become less susceptible to emotion and passion? Not often. Ask Congress. So, in light of that, the next time you go to create a cornerstone piece of content, please keep in mind that the people you are trying to move are actually people. They feel things. They are savvy. They are smart. They deserve marketing that respects their intelligence and humanity while also respecting their time.
