Back 2 the Basics

Let’s briefly  analyze the current state of Network Television so that the future of network entertainment is innovative, bright, and inspiring for the future of everyone involved with stage.   The philosophy for television in its most basic form should be about sharing ideas to be better clever- seekers of story.

In (Dream 2 Create 4 the future of Entertainment) I briefly touched on Television, Broadway musicals, the big screen, and comic fare.

Design for Network Television I conceived through a process I like to call, “Creative Engineering.” We know how to develop what it is we conceptually create.

We all imagine similar things differently! How I see 2 imagine, is not necessarily how & what you see 2 imagine; work 2 imagine the pieces fitting together with others 2 create  beyond what you cannot see alone.

During the construction of creative engineering, there’s no bad “Creative Engineering,” which seeks to utilize my, yours and theirs, vision of imagination!  Be willing to overcome your-self doubt by reaching beyond first thoughts of imagination to capture a better-clever image 2 show.
Do Not Grab- and-bag what others work hard at; and attempt to claim it as yours. It paralyzes the industry and offers nothing productive for entertainment. The opportunity for shared imagination must be present, otherwise hope for a better-clever show is obsolete.To be competitive, there must be a platform for  innovative.

Network TV needs to establish teams of creative engineers, for it will allow for a spectrum of ideas.  It’s not easy assembling small teams who are willing  to customize and share their imagination .
Typically a show will lose some luster because some folks begin feeling as though they pooped out of situations to write and create, and some might feel an urge to move-up to movies, directing, producing, etc.
Typically a spin-off is not far off.

Wait! 
What about the original? There’s still life left in that a show, (any show) can be made into a movie, I’ll guarantee it! The table is already set. The principles, writers, actors, etc are in existence, and personalities are established. Reap the rewards, assemble a small dream - team of creative engineers and get it done.There needs to be a correspondence between the two; show & movie. They both become a dumping ground for activity; a movie to expand the show beyond the boundaries of the network, showcase each character and the original show for simple pleasures that seed to feed the movie.
History has proven Network TV likes to stay attached to a predetermined paradigm!  Cable Television leads the way for innovative risk-taking; film has an unlimited playing field, but lack in a total commitment for risk-taking innovative film making!
Why?
