Welcome to The Creative + Tech Orbit, Presented by Playbook PLBK!
The Creative + Tech Orbit is a space where we’ll explore creativity and technical innovation in entertainment. Through analysis, insights, articles, interviews, trend reports, and thought leadership, we’ll examine how creative innovation and emerging technology are reshaping the future of entertainment.
We’re building a community to share ideas, knowledge, and opportunities at a time when the creative business is clearly at an inflection point.
Created By
The Creative + Tech Orbit is created by Carolyn Giardina, an award-winning tech and entertainment journalist, and the Co-Founders/Partners of Playbook PLBK Christina Lee Storm (former Netflix, DreamWorks Animation, award-winning producer, and Governor of the Television Academy), and Annie Hanlon (award-winning producer and former Netflix, Lytro and Here Be Dragons).
This publication is built on insider knowledge, field experience, and a shared belief that the best ideas happen when creativity and technology come together. We’re not just reporting on change; we’re part of it. When we share what we know, we all leave a little richer.
Our Why
The entertainment industry is evolving faster than ever, technology is rewriting every rule, and too often the people shaping the future aren’t in the same room.
We started The Creative + Tech Orbit because we are passionate about providing substantive information impacting the industry and our community. We built The CTO to connect storytellers, innovators, engineers, and executives in a single evolving dialogue so that we can delve into real conversations happening behind the scenes.
Our mission is to foster a smarter, more connected creative ecosystem, one grounded in education, access, and community, where technology doesn’t replace people; it empowers them.
