With an early lead in feature film production, California has historically been home to the greatest concentration of film industry talent in the U.S., as well as an extensive web of ancillary products, infrastructure and services. But these days, California has competition. Production centers across the globe offer U.S. production companies an enticing combination of film incentives, a skilled workforce and available infrastructure. As a result, U.S. feature films are made all over the world. Among the unique advantages that the film industry provides to local economies are: 1. It is a high-wage industry. A recent report commissioned by the County of Los Angeles revealed that the average wage in the Film and Digital Media Industry in Los Angeles County is $117,000, which is 95 percent higher compared to the county-wide average of $59,900.1 2.

KARL WALLSTRÖM MARKUS WAHLGREN Degree Projects in Applied Mathematics and Industrial Economics Degree Programme in Industrial Engineering and Management KTH Royal Institute of Technology year 2018 Supervisors at KTH: Daniel Berglund, Julia Liljegren Examiner at KTH: Henrik Hult TRITA-SCI-GRU 2018:188 MAT-K 2018:07 Royal Institute of Technology School of Engineering Sciences KTH SCI SE-100 44 Stockholm, Sweden URL: www.kth.se/sci Abstract This thesis consists of two parts which both focus on the profitability of movies with a the- atrical release. The first part has examined if it is possible to create a model for predicting and understanding the profitability of movies. Factors that influence the profitability have also been identified. This has been achieved through a regression analysis with data on movies from 2015-2017. A final multiple regression model has been created which explains 41% of the variability in the data. Significant influencing factors with at least a level of 5% significance have been identified such as the genres Horror and Musical, the MPAA-ratings PG and PG-13, the creative types Historical Fiction and Dramatization, Rotten Tomatoes Score and Sequel. The second part is an analysis on movie theaters as a distribution channel with respect to prof- itability for distribution companies using Porter's five forces. The five forces analysis suggests that movie theaters are a good distribution channel for studios which can provide mainstream movies while studios should consider releasing their low profile movies directly to streaming services since it might be more profitable.

  • The Surprise Drop: the Cloverfield Paradox, Unreal, and Evolving Patterns in Streaming Media Distribution and Reception
    . Volume 16, Issue 2 November 2019 The Surprise Drop: The Cloverfield Paradox, UnREAL, and evolving patterns in streaming media distribution and reception Cory Barker, Bradley University, USA Abstract: This article examines the surprise release, a recent phenomenon where albums, films, and TV series are distributed to digital retailers and streaming platforms without notice. This approach to distribution arises out of the modern media ecosystem, where niche consumer groups access vast content libraries on personalized devices. Surprise ‘drops’ aim to redefine the ephemerality of media objects and shift consumers’ shortened attention spans into temporary moments of interest. Utilizing a cross-industry comparison between early surprise releases in music (namely from Beyoncé and U2) and more recent examples in film (Netflix’s The Cloverfield Paradox) and television (Hulu’s UnREAL season four), this article explores how media conglomerates exploit the technical process of digital distribution for discursive and cultural value. Critical analysis of promotional materials (trailers, interviews, and social media ephemera) reveals how surprise releases make distribution the centerpiece of multi-platform publicity campaigns that aim to leverage fan conversation into clicks, streams, and downloads. More than typical releases, surprise drops are framed as gifts, or ways for artists to give back to passionate fans. The contrast between industries also highlights how the function of surprise releases has evolved from artists’ expression of influence in music to an effort to redefine troubled projects in film and television. Keywords: Digital Distribution; Streaming Video; Marketing and Promotion; Gift Economy; Affective Cycles; Netflix; Hulu; Ephemeral Media; Surprise Releases The first trailer for The Cloverfield Paradox (2018), the third instalment in the J.J.
