Why Our World Needs STORYSMART

St. Louis, MO – May 20, 2022 - More media is produced by the masses than mass media today. Think about that for a second. We are all capable of being a media outlet online. This blog post and our companion video is evidence of that phenomenon.

Like it or not, you are a media outlet. That reality is why the world needs StorySMART.

Technology has democratized the process of producing and distributing video. Today, anyone with a cell phone can shoot, edit and distribute a video. In real time. In 4K. It is amazing to think about what is possible.

With platforms like TikTok and SnapChat, you can do some pretty cool and silly things.

The production technology is amazing and empowering. High quality professional production is accessible to all of us.

But let's be honest, technology cannot turn every one of us into a great video storyteller. Just because you could shoot an amazing video doesn’t mean you will. And don’t even get me started about storytelling.

Hopefully I have you at hello on this one. I think you will agree that there are a lot of bad videos out there. Just jump on TikTok, Facebook or Youtube. Actually watch. Sure there are some enjoyable videos, but those are the exception not the rule more often than not.

Telling an amazing story with film or video is a specialized skill that rises to a high-artform in the hands of an experienced professional. That is where we come in to help.

We see ourselves as the video and film equivalent to the ghostwriter in publishing. Anyone can self-publish a book these days. The democratization of that is pretty cool too. But it has given rise to a lot of bad books. There is a huge industry of ghostwriters for hire and vanity press.

When you see that some celebrity has published a book, you can almost take it to the bank that they were not hunched over the smith corona typewriter at 2AM chain smoking cigarettes and chugging down coffee to finish that manuscript.

Even Gary V is smart enough to hire someone to turn his F-bomb laced rants into sellable books that yours truly enjoys. But when he hires that ghost writer to write his book, he retains copyright.

That simple idea is what STORYSMART is all about. We believe a 32 time emmy award winning TV reporter will do a better job telling your story than you would doing it by yourself.

If nothing else, you won’t be pulling an all night session sucking down coffee or chain smoking cigarettes as you try to figure out Final Cut Pro or Premiere.
