Film
How films are marketed
60% of box office income coming from outside USA "the big 6"
money from DVDs, subscriptions and merchandising
$145M to make hard copies for exhibition and pay profit shares to actors
the higher the budget the higher the chance the film is profitable
$120M marketing cost
indie movies have less money for marketing and hiring famous actors, etc
I Daniel Blake
no special effects
budget 500k
adult/mature British audience
no famous stars
The British Film Industry
attractive locations and governement tax breaks
Pinewood Studios for example, tax breaks to investors if films pass a "British" test
talent, high quality facilities
not difficult, many American ones have
Doctor Strange
budget 250M
Benedict Cumberbatch
CGI
universal audience
The Hollywood Film Industry
over 20 $100M films a year
high cost = less risk-taking
own and control every aspect of production, distribution and exhibition
each studio own their own production facilities, bank of stars and own movie theatres
less focus on character development and narrative
expensive films, big business
indie films cannot compete with hollywood films
agree
opportunities for cross fertilisation like merchandise
more money for stars
Marvel/Disney more money on marketing
brand reputation
more money spent on production
vertical/horizontal integration: owning movie theatres, etc
disagree
I Daniel Blake has won many awards
indie films companies can partner/link with major ones to help gain exposure
occasionally indie movies have been successful for example the Blair Witch Project
