Going All Hollywood

I'm really bent on this idea of collaboration, and how social media and a shifting industry reinforces the need for partnership more than ever before. It's all about the Hollywood model, the collage of talented people, from scriptwriters, directors, producers, lighting technicians, photographers, actors, sound specialists, etc, that work together to weave together narratives that form the rich tapestry of our culture. OK, now the communications industry may not be taking over the movie business, but I do believe it is going to take a new approach to engage deeply with people, one with creativity at its core.

A lot of the projects I have in mind would necessitate contributions from a host of talented folk - from illustrators to designers (from comics to Twitter stories to Open source API)...

Any thoughts on collaborative projects you're working on or have heard about?
