    saville productions 489 Carroll Avenue Venice, CA 90291 T \ 310.828.1478 F \ 310.828.4147 barrylevinson | featurefilmdirectors Academy-Award winning Director, Barry Levinson is perhaps best known for the critically acclaimed movies Rain Main, Diner, Good Morning, Vietnam and Wag The Dog. One of the most versatile American filmmakers of his generation, Levinson's movies showcase subjects as diverse as the immigrant experience, mob intrigue, and political satire. He earned particular acclaim for his semi-autobiographical portraits of life in 1950s Baltimore, a topic that he explored to great effect in Diner, his 1982 directorial debut. Born in Baltimore in 1942, Levinson was the son of a warehouse manager. Initially intent on a career in the media, he studied Broadcast Journalism in college but didn't remain there long enough to earn a degree. He instead switched his interests to acting and standup comedy, and, after serving a stint as a staff writer on The Carol Burnett Show, he was hired by producer Mel Brooks. The first film to carry a screenwriter credit for Levinson was Silent Movie (1976); this was followed by Brooks' High Anxiety (1977), which also featured Levinson as a vengeful bellboy in the film's celebrated Psycho parody scene. Levinson's first directorial job was the low-budget Diner (1982), the first installment of his "Baltimore trilogy" (the others were Tin Men (1987) and Avalon (1990). Diner served to showcase several stars-to-be, among them Mickey Rourke, Ellen Barkin, and Daniel Stern. A poignant, critically acclaimed, coming-of-age story, the film helped to establish Levinson as a bankable director.

  • Forecasting Failure and Success of New Films
    Pre-Concept New Product Forecasting By Steven Shugan† Revised, February 1999 † Russell Berrie Foundation Professor Marketing Department, The University of Florida College of Business Administration, 212 Bryan Hall Gainesville, FL 32611-7150, Telephone: 392-1426 x1236 Campus Fax: 352-846-0457, [email protected] The author would like to thank participants of the workshops at University of Southern California, University of Los Angeles, McGill University and University of Florida for their many helpful suggestions. The author thanks Russell Berrie for financial assistance. 1 Pre-Concept New Product Forecasting Abstract This paper's goal is to provide an approach for very early predictions for new products, which includes conformance uncertainty. It makes predictions before formulating the new product concept. Although we would not expect to resolve all or most of the uncertainty at this early stage, we hope to provide significant reduction in development uncertainty. The advocated approach explains 27.8% of the outcome variance in one empirical study. By adding a measure of expected marketing effort, the approach explains 40.2% of the outcome variance. (KEYWORDS: New product models, forecasting, new product teams, motion pictures and new product design) 2 Introduction Existing new product forecasting models are extraordinarily useful for forecasting the success of new products that are close to their finished form (e.g., Silk and Urban 1978, Urban et. al., 1997), or early after market introduction (Blattberg and Golanty 1978, Xie et. al 1997). These forecasts provide important information for launching decisions (Urban and Hauser 1995) and the likely level of sales after launch. Some models help predict the flow of information after launch (Urban, Hauser, and Roberts 1990).
