Amazon launches Amazon Studios
Has anyone heard of this yet?
"Get your movie made. The goal of Amazon Studios is to work with Hollywood to turn the best projects into major feature films." Part vc funding, part promo/contest for test movies...and they will fund a top project through a deal with Warner Bros. Actually thought this is what Hulu should have been doing a while ago. __________________ www.xxxcontentdirect.com www.extremefeeds.com ICQ: 169980934 [email protected] |

It could be what Hollywood likes to call a "gamechanger": internet retail giant Amazon is setting up its own movie studio, designed to harness the easy-access, community-based environment it has pioneered. Amazon Studios has secured a first-look deal with Warner Bros, which it hopes will secure a path to high-end movie production. The website's official statement reads: "It is the goal of Amazon Studios to produce new, full-budget theatrical films based on the best projects, and it will give Warner Bros Pictures first access to the projects Amazon Studios wishes to produce in co-operation with an outside studio."
Headed by Roy Price ? son of veteran film and TV executive Frank Price, former head of Columbia Pictures ? Amazon Studios will operate initially via a series of monthly film-making contests, with awards of $100,000 and $20,000 for the best film and script respectively. Users will be able to post their work, and other users will be able to read, view and rate as well as ? in a radical departure from normal practice ? being able to upload revisions and edits to the site. Amazon is banking on the sophistication of its rating metrics to ensure that popular projects get a serious shot at production. "We're the first studio without gate guards," says Price. "We can see which ones are working." At the same time, Amazon's clout as a retailer means that it has credibility as a player in the corporate media game. http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2010/...io-warner-bros |
