I chose this blog because it provided an insider look at how a\u00a0film industry\u00a0insider has reacted to the new digital age of opinionated transparency.<\/p>\n<p>I think Roger&#8217;s thoughts on how easy it is to market a film through word of mouth, or rather word of internet is both a blessing and a curse. In essence, this digital age forces film makers to satisfy the higher standards set by the consumers. If it does; said film&#8217;s commercial success is vastly improved. If it doesn&#8217;t; it will &#8220;<span style=\"color: #000000;\">die a swift commercial death.&#8221; Producers, writers, directors, publishers and all other stakeholders are now forced to play a higher stakes game of the film industry because of the transparency of everyone&#8217;s opinions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This new paradigm applies to almost all other forms of entertainment, including music, video games and even books. Ultimately it makes for a better business model, it incentivizes high quality production in exchange for a higher commercial payout. It doesn&#8217;t help that almost any Hollywood blockbuster is pirateable within a day of release. It&#8217;s up to the internal production stakeholders to either a) monetize piracy channels in some way (likely through litigation) or b) crack down on digital reproduction.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, I am happy I stumbled onto this blog. It provided me with a genuine look into how the film industry is adapting to the new digital age from a credible entertainment official.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source:\u00a0http:\/\/entertainment-business.blogspot.ca\/2012\/06\/in-age-of-social-media-quality-prevails.html &nbsp; This blog post comments on Roger Goff&#8217;s &#8220;The Business of Entertainment&#8221; blog which covers topics pertaining to the American movie, and music industry.
