Shrinking The Window Between Theatrical And DVD Releases: Helping Movie Studios Make Greater Profit
[ send me this essay ]
12 pages in length. The objective of increased profits in the movie industry has historically revolved around what is best for the entities involved with the production; the extent to which a particular film stands to draw millions more dollars because of a novel marketing plan almost never – if ever – takes into consideration any benefit for the consumer, the very individual responsible for establishing a profit in the first place. Now, however, both industry and end user are standing together on the cusp of something that may well serve to revolutionize the entire movie business for the better: A shrinking window of time between film release into theaters and on DVD. This unprecedented move on the part of today's filmmaking industry speaks to the growing demand from the motion picture trade and consumers alike who not only see only anticipate such a move to generate more profit for movie studios but also be beneficial to audiences who have grown impatient with waiting six months for their favorite films to be released on DVD. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Silent v. Sound/Art in Film
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page research paper that discusses silent and sound film as distinct art forms. In the public mindset, silent films are typically perceived as being less accomplished, less an art form, than the sound accompanied films that replaced this art medium. What few people realize, outside of film buss, scholars and historians, is that silent film was a fully developed art form in full maturity prior to the advent of cinematic sound and the aesthetic quality of cinema decreased after the inception of sound while artists and technicians adjusted to the requirements of what was, in many ways, a new medium. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Simultaneous Distribution in the Film Industry
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page paper discussing the relatively new approach of releasing new films to all media simultaneously. Steven Soderbergh's (Sex, Lies, and Videotape, Traffic, Ocean's Eleven) Bubble was released simultaneously to theatres, DVD and pay-per-view in January 2006; theatres refused to show the film in protest. Movie theatre operators would do well to choose to address this shift of power within the industry rather than resist it, because simultaneous distribution is likely to gain in popularity for low-budget films. Traditional studios will need to provide greater incentives to theatres before choosing to make all of their products available through simultaneous distribution. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
