Film Licensing
In the domestic marketplace, the Company's film department negotiates with film distributors, which are made up of the traditional film companies, specialized and art divisions of some of the film companies, and many other independent film distributors. The film distributors are responsible for determining film release dates, the related marketing campaigns and the expenditures related to marketing materials, television spots and other advertising outlets. The marketing campaign of each movie may include tours of the actors in the movies and coordination of articles and features about each movie. The Company is responsible for booking the films in negotiated film zones, which are either free zones or competitive zones.
