Xover Networking Day, originally uploaded by FrankBoyd.
I attended a brilliant Crossover Session with Frank Boyd and co.
This time at Electric Works at the Digital Campus in Sheffield.
Topics of the day where business models for new media content, development of new media content for kids, IP and legal structures for new media collaboration, funding, commissions and the issues around cross-media delivery.
I had great chats afterwards with Dan Hon, Sixtostart and Richard Land, Illumina. Questions where raised about how to get paid for producing content. I think an important insight is to look at what services you could deliver e.g creation of attractive meeting points that meet a market need rather than just produce content.
On the train back to London we were a bunch of geeks including David Bovill, Dave Sag, Cathy Skinner, Dorigen and Mark Atkin that talked so intensively that we where degraded from first class to second class.
