Buy Motion Picture Rights

The Australian film industry is currently in a point of crisis due to the lack of audiences attending Australian films, hence creating a decline in the revenue received towards our national industry. However, this is not due to the lack of creative talent, it is rather the many underlying issues that don?t allow the Australian public with the awareness and accessibility of these films. These problems are within the distribution, marketing and funding of these Australian films, allowing the national Australian community to not seek for films made by people within their nation due to negative pre-conceived notions and the convenience of going to see a Hollywood Blockbuster. These issues are seen through the poor release of both critically received films, Jennifer Kent?s The Babadook (2014) and Hugh Sullivan?s The Infinite Man (2014), both not gaining a wide audience. Through these issues within the industry, Australian filmmakers have not been able to create the revenue needed for these films to branch out to be easily attained by the public.

The terms and provisions for the sequel rights for one or more studios’ entire production:

In this case, a movie industry analyst is asked to evaluate a proposed venture in which a group of partners would purchase the sequel rights to movies produced by the major studios. Your objective is to 1) discuss and evaluate the basic concept; 2) determine the value of the sequel rights on a per-movie basis; 3) evaluate the possible upside and potential drawbacks to the proposed plan. As you will see, the ideas here incorporate elements of capital budgeting coupled with a “real options” analysis.

So many times, stories have been created into movies and those movies have been cherished. From the story “The Landlady” and the episode “The Tales of the Unexpected” many things can change in the process of creating the episode and some things are changed on purpose.

In our world of advanced technology, we love to watch movies more than we love to read. Sitting in front of a flat-screen TV while eating popcorn and drinking soda would sound much more appealing than reading a book by the fire at night while drinking a frappucino from Starbucks. Now, producers and directors would take successful and famous stories and adapt it into a movie. Sometimes, they would succeed, with examples being the Harry Potter series, which received mainly positive reviews from both critics and the audience. However, most of the time these people would unknowingly butcher the book based movie by taking out many important characters and events, with good examples being The Lightning Thief and Eragon. Then another example of a

- We would also like to have information about the willingness of production companies to sell sequel rights at a pre-negotiated price.

Film theorist Erlend Lavik tells us that, “practically all films contain gaps that the audience must fill in. Seeking order and coherence, we instinctively make hypotheses about what is going to happen (and

However we as artist , after the end of a copy right, may build upon these works, as the reading stated Disney

While analyzing pieces of literature written by Washington Irving, Nathaniel Hawthorne and Katherine Anne Porte, we are able to compare and contrast the literary devices used throughout the stories. Along with those pieces of literature comes movies which were based upon the story. While comparing the book to the movie we are able to see how the producer chose to portray the literary elements such as characters,plot and the settings in the stories, along if he had decided to leave some of the story out and or create an alternative resemblance of a certain scene from the book.

attention and set a foreshadowing or a hint for the remaining movie. Below, there will

In addition, once production started, the studio would inevitably form an opinion about the movie and the likeliness that a sequel would be possible. This would put Arundel at a disadvantage, because they would then have to negotiate the price for sequel rights on each film produced, while knowing much less than the production studio about the film.

Motion pictures are a key driver of the market for entertainment products, one of the largest export markets in US. Motion picture industry consists of three stages: studio production, distribution, and exhibition. The studios produce the lifeblood of the industry, the films that are its content. The biggest players at this level are the majors, big studios which integrate production and distribution, as do the slightly smaller mini-majors. The next stage is distribution. Distributors are the intermediaries between the studios and exhibitors. Distribution entails all steps following a film’s artistic completion including marketing, logistics, and administration. Distributors coordinate the manufacture and distribution of

A multitude of magnificent classic texts and even modern texts are now beginning to be more than mere words. They are now taking a whole new form, the form of a movie. However, when a story transitions from measly verses to live action plenty of characteristics have to be altered. Also, when making the story into a tale suited to a different generation of people, even more must be modified. A lot of Shakespearean plays have been become films, but the Twelfth Night is more interesting as its writers tailored it to fit a new generation of people.

Every year, librarians and curators from the Library of Congress and members of the National Film Preservation Board chose 25 movies to be added to the National Film Registry. There’s a lot of discussion and debate that goes into choosing which movies are worthy enough to the on the list. The movies chosen must be at least ten years old and be culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant (Library of Congress, 2015). They can only chose 25 movies each year, so there are still plenty that have not been added that might qualify and be a good

At this point in time have only completed the beginning of this project. I still need to do more research on each film. This
