WHY MOVIES MAY SHUT DOWN PRODUCTION?

IN MY OPINION:
WILLIAM REYNOLDS:
 
WHY MOVIES MAY SHUT DOWN PRODUCTION?
 
Film sets offer all the contagion risks of other multi-employee work environments, and with the added risks of necessary physical proximity and interaction. Social distancing is impossible when applying hair and make-up, wardrobe fittings, offloading equipment, huddling around a camera, pinning a mic to an actor, or piling into a 15-passenger van to get to the next location. No shows...expenses etc...

GEORGIA FILM PRODUCTION

IN MY OPINION:
WILLIAM REYNOLDS:
 
GEORGIA FILM PRODUCTION>>
 
 
Georgia Department of Economic Development. He spoke to Atlanta’s WXIA-TV March 11 during a Capitol celebration for Georgia Film Day, which heralded the industry’s economic boon.
“If you’ve ever been to a film set, they are very conscious about safety, and health of all their workers. So this is really something where we feel like they can continue to work. These are usually closed sets so there’s no big gathering of people,” Brantley said. “This is an industry that can thrive in really all kinds of environments and I think as long as everyone takes precautions, which I think the film industry does, we’ll continue to see them churn on.”

BAD FOR BUSINESS..BIG TIME>.

IN MY OPINION:
WILLIAM REYNOLDS:
 
BAD FOR BUSINESS..BIG TIME>.
 
As theaters across the U.S. shut down, studios are experimenting with releasing on-demand, but for tentpoles "the math really doesn't work."
As the global coronavirus pandemic has shut down movie theaters around the world, the film business faces a potentially transformative question: Should studios hold movies for a later, indefinitely postponed theatrical release or make them available as online attractions now?
While NBCUniversal and Sony Pictures are offering films on a pay-per-view basis, media analyst Rich Greenfield says “they're doing this out of complete distress and as some kind of unique learning experience rather than as a shift in strategy.”

SO, EXACTLY WHAT DOES A 'MOVIE PRODUCER DO'?

IN MY OPINION:
WILLIAM REYNOLDS:
 
SO, EXACTLY WHAT DOES A 'MOVIE PRODUCER DO'?
 
“I'll use a sports analogy,” since in theory it's much like the movie/tv industry. “The studio or whoever finances the movie is the team owner. The director is the coach. The star is your star athlete. And the producer is the general manager. If you use any professional team  as an example, It's the general manager and the coach that puts it all together, while mostly staying in the background.” But still get the Oscar when it all works out. And just like
sports, sometimes it does, and sometimes it does not. :(
