FOREWORD
In a recent editorial about future of television, the The New York Times journalist
Farhad Manjoo reported about new live TV's emotional power. Today, a show follower
wants to watch it when everyone else is watching it, and they are tweeting about it.
Watching a show without following the tweets about it, is like watching it on mute.
"Twitter has become a vital part of the show," says Manjoo.
What television is becoming with the increasing live communal content consumption,
and the impact of social media on the business of television, is precisely what
the launch of the new DIScOP Africa live event "Meet Your Stars" is all about
("Discop Africa New Show", page 24). The three-day B2B TV and Film market,
will now host bloggers, Twitter obsessives, journalists, and other "TV influencers"
along with on-screen and off-screen talents of upcoming South Africa shows
under the Meet Your Starts networking platform.
Also in this issue: the return of stand-up comedy as a favorite genre of theatre
("The comedy Scene is pretty damn exciting!", page 46); five Afro-entrepreneurs
explain how they are reshaping the media landscape ("Five Faces of the African
century", page 65); the importance of dubbing in Africa ("How dubbing is changing
the film industry on the African continent", page 86); and, finally, the best pictures
of the first edition of DIScOP Africa in Abidjan (Photo Album, page 120).
