DealFatigue: The Film Industry Is In A Pickle

  • Enci · 1 year ago
    Interesting blog. I think that the film industry is going to become more creative and there will be more quality films due to private funding. There are many filmmakers who cannot leave the country to shoot oversees but they will find ways to create and be independent. We already saw a lot of inspiring and creative films that were created during the strike. I'm looking forward to more!

    One thing that might have been understated is the transition of the film short from a calling card for new talent to a new conduit for mainstream and established talent - due to the internet and the widespread popularity of the short on youtube, funny or die, and platforms like the ipod and mobile phones.

    Oh, and your comment about short films: I wish that movie theatres would actually screen a different short every week before the feature presentation. I'm sure it would bring new customers, it would bring back repeats and it would help talent to be recognized. (Not only the obvious talent but all below the line talent as well) This would certainly help strengthen the economy and also help investors.

    If anybody out there has a movie theatre, I would love to partner with you in this endeavor! Yeah! :-)
