We’re not just watching the future of the creator economy, we’re building it.
Event overview
On May 28, we’re gathering 500 of the most creative storytellers, builders, and media entrepreneurs for The Hollywood Creator Summit, a one-day summit for creators building the future of entertainment.
For the last decade, the conversation has centered on what happens when Hollywood and creators “converge”. That conversation is behind us.
Creators and Hollywood now operate inside the same entertainment system. What matters now is how we build within this new reality.
The creator economy has mastered speed, community, and direct distribution. Hollywood has refined world-building, franchise development, and systems that scale IP across decades. Each has solved a different part of the equation.
The next era of entertainment will be built by those who combine the best of both worlds.
That’s exactly what this day in LA is designed to explore.

Details
We’re Colin and Samir - creators, storytellers, and deeply curious about the business of creativity. We’re hosting and guiding this event from start to finish. You’ll find us on stage asking the questions we think every creator wants answered, sitting in the audience taking notes, and recording a live episode of The Colin and Samir Show during the day. Our goal is to make sure every session leaves you with something useful, whether it’s a new idea, a new connection, or a new way of thinking about your work.
