The Business: Spacedock's Success Shows The Way Forward

Spacedock is still killing it with damn good lore videos. Here's the new one for Star Wars, focusing on the one Mouse Wars movie that isn't a dumpster fire: Rogue One.

Spacedock's gotten good enough that he's doing official lore videos for The Expanse and Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock, with a scope and reach far beyond expectation. The Templin Institute is getting similar attention now, and I expect Eckhart's Ladder to come along presently in profile; their three-way alliance has paid off for all of them.

I renew my call to reach out to them and get them working with we in the indie SF field to have them make videos for OUR properties. Cole & Anspach are in the best position to do this as Galaxy's Edge is big enough now to make it worth their while, but once we in #AGundam4Us build up that momentum we should be looking to make those deals to both leverage that momentum as well as to build upon it.

Why?

To expand the reach of our works, including providing Proof of Concept for cross-media adaptation. Relying on a single medium for IP longevity is over. Not even the venerable ones say in one lane; go look at the many comic adaptations of John Carter there are, going back decades, and that's for a property first established in 1912 only being adapted to one other medium. It only goes up from there, and we'd be wise to make this work for us.
