Can We Harness The Power Of Steemit To Make Our Own Television Programme?

This is a bold plan. I hope you Steemers will jump on board with this one.

I believe Steemit has the ability to get round the television industry as regards the commissioning process. So if you are an aspiring television scriptwriter, director or producer let's explore how Steemit could be harnessed to override the process of programme commissoning. For those of you who are not familiar with that process as someone who has been trying to crack this industry for a long time now I can tell you it is a very difficult challenge to get your script or concept made for television. Ultimately you have to get your idea to a broadcasting commissioner who is able to greenlight your script.

Even in the digital age there is a limited number of broadcasters with a limited pot of cash they are prepared to throw at new writers. Being an unfoudned writer in this industry is the most difficult position to be in. Even if you have one credit to your name the whole business starts to get easier, but without it the situation you're in is tough. So, can Steemit help unfounded television scriptwriters and content makers get something produced?

To be able to circumvent the very difficult procedures and processes in getting to a position to pitch your television idea to a commissioner would be a very welcome thing. So how would we all do it? For those of us interested we would need an online meeting about our approach to this. But if we galvanise enough interest we should be able to harness a collective energy and momentum to stick to one idea, and push it all the way. While simultaneosuly earning on all our posts as we document our journey on Steemit.

In essence we could use the Steemit platform as a means of brainstorming and devising the concept ready for pitching. We could then even use Steemit as a means of dialogue with broadcasters, therefore bypassing having to approach production companies who normally do the pitching on the writers behalf, if you're lucky enough to get your idea taken on board by a production company that is. So Steemit becomes the platform for the whole concept. I honestly think it may be possible to circumvent the production companies and all their power they yield in this business. This is not as crazy as it sounds.
