Wednesday, November 8, 2017

Great Room
Everyone wants the hottest talent making the loudest buzz, but recent breakout hits are proving that the next hot, sustainable talent may be where you aren't looking. The right chemistry of creative voices leading the direction of a show is imperative in creating content that strikes a chord with audiences, from producer to writer to director, but how do you achieve the magic formula to make it all click? Is it finding creative partners based on personal background, is it their experience, or does it all come down to passion? Are you seeking talent who think differently about how to best tell a story, or have the drive to produce it in a unique and compelling way? Here, we’ll take a look at how cultivating diverse voices is good for business, and how out-of-the-box thinking when choosing who should champion your production can fuel the formula for creating a hit.
