Credit Where It’s Due

Many many people in Toronto’s television community volunteered time and talent or worked at near slave wages to make the little Story2Oh! experiments happen. I want to say thanks to them.
Karen Hill is off in Halifax at the moment working on the third season of G-Spot but she’s been at my side in spirit [...]

Let’s Put on Some Peaches

Eli Singer has a comment way down there that more people need to see. He points to the storyline of the second round of Story2Oh! — the one you didn’t see at CaseCamp. Ali and Simon are a couple now and they have decided posting about each other is fair game. Of [...]

I Hear Ya

Wow. I really thought my little experiments were done yielding results. But the really good stuff is coming in now.
The emotion behind the opinions is the biggest surprise to me. There are many points of view and a ton of anger.

The Vimeo version doesn’t want to embed so you’ll have to click the link [...]

Gone Fishing, Back Soon

Our first week long experiment in storytelling was very exciting.  We learned a tremendous amount.
We will be writing new material in the next couple of weeks with the residents in The Canadian Film Centre’s CBC Prime Time Television Programme.  We’ll shoot some new material.
We hope to be back to play with you again in February [...]

Who Pays

Chapter 1 of Story2Oh! was self-financed.  But creator Jill Golick wants to make a living doing this — not pay for it out of her own pocket.  Where’s the money to support this kind of venture to come from?
In television the financial model is clear — or muddy, given the WGA strike in the US.  [...]
