How Little I Know

A big part of me writing this blog has been because I’m searching for answers. I thought if I examined enough indie filmmakers, transmedia storytellers, and content creators who are doing innovative things, it would soon become obvious what does and doesn’t work, and the path forward would become clear.

I have a young daughter who, when faced with a new situation - be it a party, a new game, or a group of kids she doesn’t know - won’t join in at first. It doesn’t matter how exciting it looks, how much fun everyone else is having - she stands on the side, reluctant to join, watching, waiting, trying to decipher how it works and the unspoken rules of the game or social situation.  She only steps in once she understands it fully, and sees an opening for herself. I know where she gets it from.
