Our film collective has been developing a feature script together for eight months and we all contribute ideas but when someone's concept gets changed or cut they go quiet for the rest of the session. We've created this environment where everyone is polite but no one is willing to fight for their vision, so the script is becoming safe instead of surprising.
More people experience this than they realize.
The group has prioritized harmony over creative tension, inadvertently creating conditions where breakthrough ideas cannot survive the collaborative process.
