Mark Litwak provides the most comprehensive look at the film business since Hortense Powdermaker's Hollywood, The Dream Factory, published thirty-five years ago. Using interviews with 200 film insiders, including Jane Fonda, Barry Diller, Robert Altman, Martin Sheen, Robert Evans and Paul Newman - to name only a few of the writers, directors, performers, agents, producers and journalist he quotes at length - Litwak leads us through the maze of power and politics in Hollywood. In the process, he cites specific examples, tears down myths, relates anecdotes and reveals the inner workings of the industry.
Movie Marketing demystifies complex marketing issues, profiling marketing strategies for films of widely varying budgets, genres, and intended audiences through the words of the marketers and distributors (and occasionally filmmakers) responsible for developing and implementing these strategies.
This up-to-date, legalese-free handbook explains how multimedia works are produced and distributed and explores the common, usually complex and discipline-crossing, legal issues that have accompanied its growth.
Mark Litwak draws in-depth portraits of American lawyers from different branches of the law, showing that the law can be a daring and adventurous profession for people with the courage, brains, and determination to defy stereotypes and go their independent ways.
