My oldest daughter, Ellen, LOVES stories. She has quite an imagination and I always seem to find myself making up stories for her. Most of them include princesses and flying horses.
It makes me feel like a bad mom, but sometimes I get annoyed trying to think up stories to satisfy her hunger for a fantastic tale. The frustration comes from having to "make up" a story versus telling one that really happened. Fantasy makes sense in many venues. But, in the world of online video production where web videos are becoming commonplace, fantasy stories don't always make sense.
The internet is a forum in which normal folks, like me, can go to get good, seemingly objective, information. Commercials are for TV. The "truth" is found on the internet. So, when I talk to people about online video production I steer them toward telling real stories with real people. No scripts...no actors...just life.
My daughter is looking for fantasy. So, I try, with all my weird story lines, to deliver. But most folks don't want the tale of the princess who was trapped by a ogre and rescued by her sister who flew in on a unicorn. They go on-line looking for the truth. I find that much easier to deliver and luckily my job is helping people to find and tell those real stories.
