SXSW 2021
Your Cinematic Universe
Description:
Join ReelwUrld for an exciting panel about how we're using technology to harness the collective power and creativity of fans to transform the entertainment landscape.
Fans create incredible content around their favorite franchises every day—fan fiction, fan art, LARP or cosplay— but other than the occasional shoutout from a brand, there’s little recognition for the fans. In the age of social media, how can we as a culture and community integrate the audience into larger narratives when Hollywood studios weren’t built to be inclusive? Your Cinematic Universe will explore the new frontier of fan involvement in narrative storytelling.
