Documentary: Influencers



INFLUENCERS is a short documentary that explores what it means to be an influencer and how trends and creativity become contagious today in music, fashion and entertainment. The film attempts to understand the essence of influence, what makes a person influential without taking a statistical or metric approach.

It’s an excellent documentary that is totally worth the 14 minutes it runs. SuperForester Jackson wrote a post weighing the differences between ways of creating an impact on this planet. His conclusions were something along the lines of, “Changing the world is easy”, “Changing a person’s mind is extremely difficult”, and how as a result, instead, he was interested in “influencing people”. Because influence is a powerful thing, it is “the ring in the nose of the Bull that is Change.” This film's discussion is very much in the same vein, and I think that anyone out there with a creative job can definitely take something away from it.
