Many of us thought the dslr would launch a French New Wave style revolutionary cinema movement in the early 2010s, and it definitely birthed a generation of filmmakers, but we needed the distribution technology to mature, and the culture to be ready.
There’s so much talk about the death of Hollywood. And this gets incorrectly conflated with being the death of cinema — which is far from true.
Yes. I think a certain segment of Hollywood is dead. But for ALL the reasons you so eloquently address here, and many more, I personally believe some of cinema’s most exciting times are right around the corner — which means they are really happening now. THIS is the revolution we thought would happen long ago.
“The dream of the 90s is alive in Portland”, and in film culture.
The walls are down. The gates are crashed and Warner Brothers stock has been downgraded to a "Junk Stock". This is what happens when you think audiences are stupid and you shit all over creatives for 50 years.
Amazing ideas here. Keep it up and let me know how I can help. Same mentality that led to Slamdance.

Love this!! Creator Camp is awesome.
Sounds exciting! Is this gonna expand to the UK? Asking on behalf of the cinema activists here
Good question for Creator Camp guys. Feels scalable but I suspect they are going to focus on building US first
