December 14, 2011 at 4:41 pm I met Lucas J.W. Johnson at Merging Media 2011 where my friend, Cinci, suggested I blog about him.
Lucas is exceptionally sharp and ambitious – and he has clearly spent considerable time researching the transmedia landscape. I figured it was in my best interest to sponge off his knowledge. (I found his responses to my interview questions to be quite thought-provoking – so I’ve added a few comments after some of his responses.) What is a valuable lesson you’ve learned about the digital space?
Look at your project from the audience’s perspective. You come to a project with the perspective of the creator — I have this awesome story I want to tell, and this awesome way I want to tell it. [But] if you’re going to actually succeed, then before you actually release it, in the process of creating it, you have to shift that perspective, and come at the project from the point of view of the audience. Was there anything at Merging Media that you were excited by?
