Decentralizing HollywoodTony Cartalucci, Contributor The Singularity Hub reported in their article The Democratization Of Filmmaking Riveting Sci-Fi Short Film Rha Created By A Single Person, that: Digital filmmaking is transforming Hollywood, no doubt, but for independent filmmakers, it is nothing short of a revolution. Case in point: 22-year-old German student Kaleb Lechowski. After seven months of writing, designing, and editing as well as reporting his progress on his blog, Kaleb recently posted his short sci-fi film Rha on Vimeo. The six-minute film, which does not include a single human being, was completed as part of his first-year studies in digital film design in Berlin. The article would also state: As more software tools becomeavailableto the masses and people passionateabout film invest their time into capturing their visions, we are sure to see an increasingly number of short digital films of Hollywood-level scope with a single individual in the credits. While software giants, record companies, and Hollywood studios continue their assault on Internet freedom through draconian legislation like SOPA, ACTA, and PIPA, and as they continue hounding activists like Aaron Swartz literally to his death, solutions for undermining and circumventing this legislation like the recently reported PirateBox give us ways to continue sharing. Additionally, high-quality shorts like Rha made possible with improved open source tools, illustrate that in the very near future open source entertainment will simply begin replacing big-business all together. The day will come when the urge to share proprietary intellectual property will no longer be appealing, even if it was encouraged by big-business.
