And now more than ever, that stage on which to tell your story/show your film has never been more crowded. On average there are: • 500,000 filmmakers worldwide • 10,000 films made per year • 700+ Films MPAA rated & with some form of release • 200 or so obtain a decent release permitting any return at all, much less a profit Most filmmakers have a vision and passion to make their film, and many have been highly trained in great film schools to make that film, but what most aren’t trained for is the business of filmmak- ing. The shortest window of a film’s life cycle is typically the actual making of the film (pre-produc- tion, principal photography, post production). It can take years to fully develop the property, raise the financing to fund the production, and market and distribute the final product. A filmmaker in the 21st Century must fuse business and creative to successfully launch and maintain a career. I am often asked, “What exactly does a film producer do?” I can answer that in one word or a whole book. That one word is: everything. Did you ever wonder why it’s only the producers who accept the Best Picture Oscar? It’s because they did everything necessary to get the film onto the world stage. From concept to development, to financing, to production, to delivery, to marketing and distribution - they have their hand in each and every phase of it. A filmmaker today must have the skills and knowledge of creative, legal, financing, production, marketing and distribution, and be able to put that knowledge to use. A filmmaker must be able to multi-task, handle all types of personalities, pitch, coach, stand their ground, corral, cajole, and yes, sometimes scream and demand to get ‘er done! To be able to accomplish all these tasks successfully, a filmmaker must be what I have coined a “Balanced Producer.” A Balanced Producer gives equal weight to being a Fiduciary, Marketer and Visionary. • A FIDUCIARY strives to return a profit to their Investor(s) and their company. • A MARKETER creates projects with commercial appeal to a known target audience, and secures domestic and/or foreign distribution commitments in advance of principal photography. • A VISIONARY has and lives a clear vision for each project and an entire career. This book is an attempt to give the independent filmmaker an overview of all the areas a filmmaker must take accountability and responsibility for in order to lead their team through the 6 cycles of a film’s life: • Development • Packaging • Financing • Production • Marketing • Distribution Business of Show Business 4 Introduction (cont’d) For The Business of Show Business for Creatives, Focal Press has accessed the best of its film library to bring you the leading-edge knowledge, techniques and tools to understand how to become a Balanced Producer. The American Film Market (AFM), the largest motion picture market in the world, is in partner- ship with Focal Press for this eBook, and together they are launching the ‘American Film Market Presents’ series. AFM will collaborate with Focal Press to present books on the business of motion picture production and distribution. Their mutual goal with the series is to educate and inform independent filmmakers about the business behind the film industry. If you like what a certain author has to say about their particular area of expertise, we encourage you to read their entire book.

He is credited with many innovations that transformed the movie business, most notably, the creation of the multiplex cinema and the invention of the arm-rest cup holder.

  • The Rise of a Confident Hollywood: Risk and the Capitalization of Cinema’, Review of Capital As Power, Vol
    THE RISE OF A CONFIDENT HOLLYWOOD Suggested citation: James McMahon (2013), ‘The Rise of a Confident Hollywood: Risk and the Capitalization of Cinema’, Review of Capital as Power, Vol. 1, No. 1, pp. 23-40. The Rise of a Confident Hollywood: Risk and the Capitalization of Cinema1 JAMES MCMAHON Nature ceased to be inscrutable, subject to demonic incursions from another world: the very essence of Nature, as freshly conceived by the new scientists, was that its sequences were orderly and therefore predictable: even the path of a comet could be charted through the sky. It was on the model of this external physical order that men began systematically to reorganize their minds and their practical activities: this carried further, and into every department, the precepts and practices empirically fostered by bourgeois finance. Like Emerson, men felt that the universe itself was fulfilled and justified, when ships came and went with the regularity of heavenly bodies. - Lewis Mumford, Technics and Civilization he Hollywood film business, like any other business enterprise, operates according to the logic of capitalization. Capitalization in an instrumental logic T that is forward-looking in its orientation. Capitalization expresses the present value of an expected stream of future earnings. And since the earnings of the Hollywood film business depend on cinema and mass culture in general, we can say that the current fortunes of the Hollywood film business hinge on the future of cinema and mass culture. The ways in which pleasure is sublimated through mass culture, and how these ways may evolve in the future, have a bearing on the valuation of Hollywood’s control of filmmaking.

  • A Producer's Handbook
    DEVELOPMENT AND OTHER CHALLENGES A PRODUCER’S HANDBOOK by Kathy Avrich-Johnson Edited by Daphne Park Rehdner Summer 2002 Introduction and Disclaimer This handbook addresses business issues and considerations related to certain aspects of the production process, namely development and the acquisition of rights, producer relationships and low budget production. There is no neat title that encompasses these topics but what ties them together is that they are all areas that present particular challenges to emerging producers. In the course of researching this book, the issues that came up repeatedly are those that arise at the earlier stages of the production process or at the earlier stages of the producer’s career. If not properly addressed these will be certain to bite you in the end. There is more discussion of various considerations than in Canadian Production Finance: A Producer’s Handbook due to the nature of the topics. I have sought not to replicate any of the material covered in that book. What I have sought to provide is practical guidance through some tricky territory. There are often as many different agreements and approaches to many of the topics discussed as there are producers and no two productions are the same. The content of this handbook is designed for informational purposes only. It is by no means a comprehensive statement of available options, information, resources or alternatives related to Canadian development and production. The content does not purport to provide legal or accounting advice and must not be construed as doing so. The information contained in this handbook is not intended to substitute for informed, specific professional advice.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Cinesthesia by an authorized editor of ScholarWorks@GVSU. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Macciomei: Co-optation of the American Dream Independent cinema has been an aspect of the American film industry since the inception of the art form itself. The aspects and perceptions of independent film have altered drastically over the years, but in general it can be used to describe American films produced and distributed outside of the Hollywood major studio system. But as American film history has revealed time and time again, independent studios always struggle to maintain their freedom from the Hollywood industrial complex. American independent cinema has been heavily integrated with major Hollywood studios who have attempted to tap into the niche markets present in filmgoers searching for theatrical experiences outside of the mainstream. From this, we can say that the American independent film industry has a long history of co-optation, acquisition, and the stifling of competition from the major film studios present in Hollywood, all of whom pose a threat to the autonomy that is sought after in these markets by filmmakers and film audiences.

  • A Dark New World : Anatomy of Australian Horror Films
    A dark new world: Anatomy of Australian horror films Mark David Ryan Faculty of Creative Industries, Queensland University of Technology A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the degree Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), December 2008 The Films (from top left to right): Undead (2003); Cut (2000); Wolf Creek (2005); Rogue (2007); Storm Warning (2006); Black Water (2007); Demons Among Us (2006); Gabriel (2007); Feed (2005). ii KEY WORDS Australian horror films; horror films; horror genre; movie genres; globalisation of film production; internationalisation; Australian film industry; independent film; fan culture iii ABSTRACT After experimental beginnings in the 1970s, a commercial push in the 1980s, and an underground existence in the 1990s, from 2000 to 2007 contemporary Australian horror production has experienced a period of strong growth and relative commercial success unequalled throughout the past three decades of Australian film history. This study explores the rise of contemporary Australian horror production: emerging production and distribution models; the films produced; and the industrial, market and technological forces driving production. Australian horror production is a vibrant production sector comprising mainstream and underground spheres of production. Mainstream horror production is an independent, internationally oriented production sector on the margins of the Australian film industry producing titles such as Wolf Creek (2005) and Rogue (2007), while underground production is a fan-based, indie filmmaking subculture, producing credit-card films such as I know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer (2006) and The Killbillies (2002). Overlap between these spheres of production, results in ‘high-end indie’ films such as Undead (2003) and Gabriel (2007) emerging from the underground but crossing over into the mainstream.
