The recent creative industry pat-on-the-back event The Oscars[1] has got me thinking about creativity, art and business.
We have mega-über-super-stars, and struggling artists. And that seems to be it.
There are some fantastic people and businesses that are exceptions, but there are still relatively few ‘little guys’ able to make a comfortable living from their art (in a way that respects their customers too). [2]
Where is the middle ground? Is it really the case that it must be this way, or is it the case that Hollywood and The Big Three and their policies are stifling the creative start-up?
