Being a writer and director are challenging positions. A writer and director must be in-tune with their audience in order to capture

Whenever books are adapted for film, changes inevitably have to be made. The medium of film offers several advantages and disadvantages over the book: it is not as adept at exploring the inner workings of people - it cannot explore their minds so easily; however, the added visual and audio capabilities of film open whole new areas of the imagination which, in the hands of a competent writer-director, can more than compensate.

Mindy Kaling is an esteemed Hollywood actress known for her roles as Jane on “Jane the Virgin” and Kelly on “The Office.” Many people know her on screen but few know that in addition to her acting she is also a scriptwriter. So, when Kaling was given the chance to pitch ideas for the next Hollywood hit, she jumped at the opportunity. She went before a panel of executives to share her thoughts for the next box office romcom, and was left both confused and surprised by their lack of interest, with a counter that they were looking into movies that were about boardgames.

The discussion of wether film adaptations are better than their novels is ongoing. Khaled Hosseni’s “The Kite Runner” was a New York Times bestseller that was better than the film made for it. Films have time constraints as a long novels must be fit within a 1-2 hour time frame. They have production issues as some scenes from the book are inappropriate for all viewers. Movies also need to target a range of audiences to become blockbuster hits, whereas, novels do not. Although directors strive to make novel-based films as closely related to the books as possible, inevitable distinctions continue to exist.

Parsi’s goal of having as much creative control as possible will not be achieved if the known actor is hired. There is a chance that the studio and the actor will want the actor’s part to be the center of the film which may differ from Parsi’s creative idea. Tauzen, our known actor, has been known to cause problems in creativity while working on films. The studio will provide more funding to the film if Tauzen is hired, but will consequently cause the studio to have more oversight over the production. If Parsi wants to maintain control over the creativity of the film, having the studio have more oversight of the production will not help meet this goal. Also, Tauzen is known to have a past of creating delays in filming which consequently caused

A literary adaptation is defined as “a composition that has been recast into a new form e.g novel, play or screen production”. (Ross, 2009, p.5) It has been noted that almost a third of all film productions ever created were based on novel adaptations, and in today’s contemporary society the ‘book to film’ adaptation cycle is more present than ever. Although this could to seen as an innocent move allowing ‘great’ texts to be more approachable and appreciated by modern culture, it has been argued that the process damages the original content and understanding that is taken from the source material.

According to Armstrong and Kotler (2009), total world trade has been growing at 6% to 11% annually since 2003, whereas global gross domestic product has grown at only 2.5% to 5% annually. Global marketing has become necessary for an organization’s survival and The Walt Disney Company (Disney) has been a pioneer in global expansion.
