Some interesting notions about the possibility of engaging an audience in a story and then having them fund the actual production of a film (it could be applied to books, websites, et al).

- “What’s interesting to me is the hybridisation of distribution: people have to really think outside the traditional box by creating new ways to reach core audiences.
“The question is not just how we use the web to send our content to people, but finding patterns in which they can reach in and choose what they want. It is very important that producers, the people that are creating these stories, are the ones who are helping develop those streams.” - “Most documentaries will be seen in people’s computers.

“We still need cinemas and festivals, but I don’t think it will ever be the primary way people watch documentaries.” - “Co-production exists because nobody has enough money to pay for the cost of the movie, but the biggest trend will be to build communities that not only help you with the distribution, but also with the funding. When we figure that out we’ll be successful,” he said
