It was some weird kind of coincidence that on the day that TheWrap hosted its first event for Silicon Valley executives in northern California on Friday, the entire cast of “Silicon Valley” was hanging out in our Los Angeles offices for a magazine photo shoot.
The conversation out of San Francisco was driven by the divide that the event intended to bridge: how technology innovators are impacting content, and how Hollywood storytellers are struggling to adapt to the new reality of 24/7 accessibility over social media . And now there’s Periscope!
That’s the state of play: technology is getting more sophisticated, offering simpler and cheaper tools for story-tellers to use and for consumers to access.
