Exporting Canadian Feature Films in Global Markets TRENDS, OPPORTUNITIES AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS MARIA DE ROSA | MARILYN BURGESS COMMUNICATIONS MDR (A DIVISION OF NORIBCO INC.) APRIL 2017 PRODUCED WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF 1 EXPORTING CANADIAN FEATURE FILMS IN GLOBAL MARKETS Acknowledgements This study was commissioned by the Canadian Media Producers Association (CMPA), in partnership with the Association québécoise de la production médiatique (AQPM), the Cana- da Media Fund (CMF), and Telefilm Canada. The following report solely reflects the views of the authors. Findings, conclusions or recom- mendations expressed in this report are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the funders of this report, who are in no way bound by any recommendations con- tained herein. 2 EXPORTING CANADIAN FEATURE FILMS IN GLOBAL MARKETS Executive Summary Goals of the Study The goals of this study were three-fold: 1. To identify key trends in international sales of feature films generally and Canadian independent feature films specifically; 2. To provide intelligence on challenges and opportunities to increase foreign sales; 3. To identify policies, programs and initiatives to support foreign sales in other jurisdic- tions and make recommendations to ensure that Canadian initiatives are competitive. For the purpose of this study, Canadian film exports were defined as sales of rights. These included pre-sales, sold in advance of the completion of films and often used to finance pro- duction, and sales of rights to completed feature films. In other jurisdictions foreign sales are being measured in a number of ways, including the number of box office admissions, box of- fice revenues, and sales of rights.

Distribution Pricing: Theoretical Principles and Practical Approaches
IET Generation Transmission & Distribution. Volume: Number: Pages: -. Distribution pricing: theoretical principles and practical approaches J. Reneses, M. Rodríguez Abstract— Electricity tariffs convey information on internal system operation to the actors involved. Electricity pricing is, then, of major importance both in liberalised and regulated systems. Most electricity consumers interact with the industry only through the price they pay for the service. Consequently, good tariff design reflects industry regulation as a whole and is the instrument used to provide consumers with the right signals. The objective of this study is to define the theoretical principles that regulation should pursue in electric distribution tariff design and introduce the reader to the most relevant practical approaches that have been proposed or implemented. Although distribution costs are usually the largest part of the access tariff (or use of system charge), there is not a universally accepted methodology for distribution pricing. The earliest attempts at cost allocation conformed what is now known as the accounting approach, based on business accounting. In recent years, the proposals have focused on two approaches: the application of long-term marginal (or incremental) costs and the cost-causality principle. Although the former aims to achieve a better economic signal, because of the difficulties surrounding its implementation, the most usual solution applied in practice draws more heavily from the causality principle.

Defensive and Offensive Strategies for Market Success
International Journal of Business and Social Science Vol. 2 No. 13 [Special Issue - July 2011] Defensive and Offensive Strategies for Market Success Dr. Peter Yannopoulos Associate Professor Brock University, St. Catharines Ontario, Canada, L2S 3A1 E-mail: [email protected] Tel: (905) 688-5550 ext. 3909 Abstract In industries in which there is strategic interaction among competing firms, companies are continuously involved in defensive and offensive strategies. In this paper we discuss several defensive and offensive strategies that managers can you for market success. Defensive strategies are divided into pre-entry and post-entry stretegies. Marketing managers should attempt to discourage would be entrants before entry has occurred. They can achieve this goal by engaging in pre-entry startegies. After entry is occurred it is more difficult to persuade new entrants to exit the industry. For this reason, marketing managers should use different defensive strategies for defending their positions in pre-entry and post-entry situations. Key words: Defensive strategies, offensive strategies, pre-entry strategies, post-entry strategies 1. Introduction Competition forces companies to constantly engage in offensive and defensive marketing strategies. Rivalry occurs because one or more competitors either feels the pressure or sees an opportunity to enter an industry or to improve its position within an industry. In most cases, competitive moves by one firm have noticeable effects on its competitors and, thus, may invite retaliation or efforts to counter the move (Porter 1980). Companies respond to competitor challenges by counterattacking with increasing advertising expenditures, cutting prices, increasing innovation, and introducing new products, or even accommodating the entrant by doing nothing or decreasing the level of marketing effort (Karakaya and Yannopoulos, 2011; Scherer, 1980).

The aM rket for Real Estate Presales: A Theoretical Approach Abstract Presale agreements have become a pervasive worldwide practice for residential sales, especially in many Asian markets. Although there is a burgeoning empirical literature on presales agreements, only a few papers actually address their theoretical foundations. We create a set of interrelated theoretical models for explaining how and why developers and buyers engage in presale contracts for non-completed residential dwellings. Given heterogeneous consumer beliefs about future market prices, developers and buyers enter into presale agreements to mitigate, two intertwined, fundamental risks: those of real estate market valuation and default. Our analyses are consistent with prior empirical findings and provide additional theoretical insights for understanding the market for presales.

GRABOWSKI National Bureau of Economic Research and Duke University The Effects of Advertising on the Interindustry Distribution of Demand ABSTRACT: An empincal investigation is undertaken of the effects of advertising on the pattern of consumer demand across different prod uct classes. Demand functions are estimated for several consumption categories (e.g., food, clothing, automobiles, etc.) over the period 1956-1972 using both single equation and simultaneous equation techniques. The particular dynamic models analyzed are most appli cable to nondurable categories. ¶ The most interesting results emerge from a comparison of the simultaneous equation and least squares results. Least squares estimates suggest a statistically significant effect of advertising on demand in several categories. However, after adjust nients are made for both external advertising and simultaneous equa tion effects, insignificant coefficients are observed except in a few very advertising-intensive categories. On the other hand, in almost all consumption categories considered, the level of sales is a strong explanatory variable of advertising outlays. ¶ These findings therefore do not provide much support for the hypothesis advanced by Galbraith and others that advertising has strong effects on consumer budget al!ocations even across product classes which are not close substitutes.

Erosion of the Wholesale Distribution Value Proposition Trend
Erosion of the Wholesale Distribution Value Proposition Trend: Remaining relevant in the wholesale distribution value chain continues to be a challenge, as technology (comparative raters, behavioral pricing models, big data and advanced analytics), focusing on sales versus underwriting and efforts to reduce cost are eroding the traditional value proposition the wholesaler brings to the markets they represent. Implications: Pressures on pricing Pressures on loss ratio – potential for adverse selection for markets that don’t align to your IT strategy (i.e. comparative raters) Potential loss of markets Higher cost of doing business Erosion of underwriting expertise Viability of the wholesaler – retailer may go direct – find someone else with higher commission Carriers in an effort to reduce cost may look at other distribution avenues Advanced analytics – improve hit and loss ratios, better risk selection Behavioral Pricing – puts wholesalers at a cost disadvantage Comparative Raters – potential to reduce underwriting acumen, commoditization Over-reliance on the comparative raters - brain drain of underwriting acumen – the high level of underwriting expertise at the wholesalers level is lost Opportunities: Higher short term revenue – aggressive on sales, potential long term negative impacts 1 | P a g e ............................................................ 7 / 6 / 2 0 1 6 Erosion of the Wholesale Distribution Value Proposition Expertise to further enhance and take advantage of those not focusing on the relationship Flexible
