Hello, lots of lovely new people here.
I'm Sarah, I do a few things
1. I make films. I'm currently making my first feature doc on Section 28 called Don't Say Gay at anthrobricolage.com
2. I write about how the world is designed and services as materials sarah-drummond.com/full-stack-s...

Yesterday I gave a talk on Practical Hope in response to trust being at an all time low in Government.
So how do we rebuild it?
Trust grows when:
● people see change happening today
● and see that better futures are possible tomorrow
● Are given agency to build that

I'm starting to notice where people are using AI to format their blog posts, linked in posts, new strategies and content
There's something off about it.
Like - a bit sort of punctuated, things in are threes, quite ethereal/keynote TED style...
Have you noticed it? Finding it a bit much

Looking for examples of 'service veneers' where a solution has been plastered over a complex series of services with the promise of a streamlined better experience but hasn't done hard work to improve whole system.
Think like 'life stage' digitised journeys or outcomes still being hard to meet

We've written about the 5 things that are needed in any scenario to create an organisation that can design and deliver services well

#celebritytraitors was really good TV right?
I went to see David Olusoga for a talk maybe a few months after filming and though he couldn’t really talk about any details, he mentioned just coming back from filming traitors and you could tell he really had had the best of times

The painful process of editing a teaser down for a festival pitching circuit by 16 seconds to fit the 3 minute maximum rule.
It's like writing proposals again for the digital marketplace, just in premiere pro.
This time, replacing small words like the + and, for chopping people pausing for breath

My documentary on Section 28 showed me how censorship works — and how it returns in new forms.
So I’m hosting a one-day conference on the rise of anti-rights movements and what we can do.

Great day with Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park yesterday
I ran a futures session on climate adaptation and extreme weather events
We spent the day looking at our services then bigger picture of how our org needs to think about finance, strategy, policy to adapt to a changing climate

Me again, on about ticketing.
I want to do a save the date for a conference and collect email interest then when ready, sell tickets to it.
Is there a ticketing platform out there that can do this? Or is it a case of 'make a free ticket available' and name it something like 'notify me on launch?'

What is the best ticketing platform out there now for a one off (paid) conference that can handle free tix/reduced and not give me all the extra fluff I don't need except the basics

Any rec's?
