Development Hell- ‘Development hell or development limbo is media industry jargon for a project that remains in development(often moving between different crews, scripts, or studios) without progressing to completion.’

It will be a mix between of people who enjoy consuming and producing the mediums. But mostly targeted towards the ‘creator’ community
