ABSTRACT
In the opening sections of this book, I highlighted the particular challenge facing film producers in their quest to navigate the film value chain. Moving successfully from development to a full package, from finance to production, sales to marketing and distribution to the audience is a daunting task, even to the most seasoned filmmakers. Since the first edition of this book, I have looked at different ways that the value chain can potentially be restructured, and specifically how producers and distributors might work closer together.
