good to hear all this<br><br>i think now you need to have real think about whether there is something realistically monetisable about the IP or the film distribution side. once you arrive at your conclusion you need to get this out to the wides buzz via facebook and twitter and classic blog. remove/reduce threshold to nothing for people to encounter, participate in, collaborate, disseminate.. get numbers on via the public networking.. and youtube links straight off<br>
<br>numbers game - and so i would discourage you from holding project too tightly to bosom, if as you think mod still has life then it needs to get the feedback and pick up from www<br><br>this needs to go well well beyond your existing network who have only been able to go so far. thank them and encourage them to forward youtube, facebook and twitter channels to their networks<br>

<div>It's been an eventful month. First up, the traditional film community
publicly recognised the value of what we've been doing with Sanctuary and other
remixable projects by honouring me with a Sydney Film Festival prize, the
inaugural Peter Rasmussen Innovation Award <a href="http://modfilms.com/archives/20090615_press_release_.html" target="_blank"></a>(citing
Sanctuary)! </div>
<div>
<p>Then I got to attend the <a href="http://openvideoconference.org/" target="_blank">Open Video
Conference (OVC)</a> in NYC. You can read <a href="http://thequality.com/people/michela/weblog/archives/002830.html" target="_blank">my
conference report</a>. </p>
<p>Frustrating as it is to not have the resources to simply complete and release
Sanctuary, reality bites. The key learnings I've brought back from the OVC
are:</p>
<p>1) Staged delivery - the need to keep releasing is paramount. <br>2)
Collectivism - for remixable films to develop, the community needs more
resources. </p>
<p>It is due to the invaluable input and support of remixable media community
members over many years that we have got the project to the stage it has
reached. Now I see the need to start releasing material regardless of the fact a
finished cut has not yet been produced. So I invite discussion on how best to
release the Sanctuary asset library and pipeline tools as they stand. I plan to
release them by 14 July, so comments before then would be appreciated.</p>
<p>I still intend to finish my cut but it's time to take that milestone off the
critical path for the project.</p>
<p>So without further ado, I'm hereby opening up this rather old-fashioned
looking blog to the public...</p>
