Made in Glasgow: Blazing Griffin - The system is broken: So what next?
Industry Focus Panel
The consensus is clear: the traditional film industry is fundamentally broken. From precarious financing models and chaotic streaming landscapes to shifting audience behavior, the established pathways for filmmaking are fragmenting at an unprecedented rate. This panel dives headfirst into this disruption, not to lament the past, but to explore what opportunities, if any, that only a system-wide breakdown can create.
This is a discussion about radical agility. The panelists will examine how the end of business-as-usual is forcing innovation in production, financing, and audience connection. We will explore how new technologies may make or break the storytelling of the future, enabling visionary projects to break free from legacy constraints or leading to the demise of quality. The conversation will focus on building the next generation of cinema on the foundations of speed, digital-native infrastructure, and strategic creative partnerships.
Join Blazing Griffin and our expert panelists as they map out a path to not just survive the chaos, but to thrive within it.
