Garden Snaps: A Reply To Ted Hope's Studio Challenge

Ted Hope from Hope For Film has posed an interesting challenge to his subscribers:

‘I personally like the idea that we are taking over an existing studio, with some legacy businesses and a streaming arm. I know you’d do something different if we were a true start-up, but we can explore that later. For now, we’ve been given such a company.

Since all of this is a dream, you can decide what businesses they are in or not. Make some big choices, but you can only display five.’

The dream scenario. A carte blanche thinking exercise that has put Team Open Gardens in the driver’s seat of a major Hollywood studio.

But — only five ideas? How can we really transform a legacy studio with only five initiatives?

Don’t worry - we’ll play by the rules.

Thank you Ted for the opportunity to turn Open Gardens into a major film studio.

Let’s look into the future.
