Crowdsourcing

This week's readings were on Crowdsourcing. It pertains to the crowdsourcing assignment that we had for class with the frame factory marathon. I genuinely enjoyed this assignment because we had an interesting creative control with some guidance. Staying within the bounds and following the light gray animation made for some interesting designs but a more vibrant animation. I also have experience with crowdsourcing campaigns on sites like Indiegogo. These projects always prove to be very interesting and it let's you see what people all over the country and world are working on. With the invention of Wikipedia, a crowdsourcing website, anyone can add information to topics, pending approval from administrative workers for the site. The cloudfilmaking manifesto is also is another way to collaborate on projects with people from all over the world. These are all interesting ways to connect with universal filmmakers and collaborate on projects together!
