I am happy to announce that the Houston Astros have developed three separate ticket plans for the upcoming season. We must consider several things when determining our pricing structure. As an organization, we need to be cognizant that there are many different kinds of fans, therefore, the design of the ticket structure must reach out to these varied types of customers. Some fans will come for day games while others will only attend weekend games. Additional supporters may only attend games once…

“Why would anyone want to make avant-garde/experimental films in a time of virulent anti-intellectualism, widespread political repression and persecution, misguided social and cultural priorities, an increasingly ugly and vulgar popular culture, and, perhaps most questionable of all, an intense apathy to all things beautiful and sublime” (Varela 3)? In the early 1960’s, a group of artists and filmmakers primarily set in New York City began create films that would later define the decade as a…

My director is Spike Lee. I choose Spike Lee because he is a good and well known movie director. His films always have action in them and keep you interested the whole movie. The most recent movies I watched by Spike Lee are “He Got Game” and “Crooklyn.” The movie Crooklyn came out in 1994. It was a good movie about the ups and downs that families have to go through sometimes but at the end the family overcomes the problems. Another Spike Lee movie I really liked was “He Got Game” because its…

A movie theater in the eyes of many is a great place to spend a night with family, or with a special one. On the other hand, many other people believe that the movie theaters are actually disgusting, chaotic, and irrelevant. These people believe that staying in the comfort of their own home to watch a movie is much better than to travel all the way to a movie theater. I am one of these people who think that watching a movie in my own living room is better, than going all the way to a movie…

As a marketing consultant, I believe Nathan Polanski and Sean Stronghold have a strong potential business opportunity ahead of them in opening a second-run movie theatre in Medicine Hat, Alberta. They have only one other competitor in the second-run movie theatres; with both Nathan and Sean intend on screening ten different films per night, giving consumers many different options to choose from instead of their competitor the Downtown Theatre which only showcases one film per night. All the…

And why is that? It is because of the normalization of companionship, especially in public places such as movie theaters. While observing the people in the lobby of the movie theater, I noticed that the place was full of groups of people. In different areas of the theater, it was the same, with the bare minimum being two people per group. One such group was made up exclusively of teenage boys, six of them, and they went everywhere together…

In addition, iconic American actors such as Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe rose to worldwide stardom. Its popularity, through…

The Ever-changing Field of Film The world of film and cinematography has changed a lot over the years, and it will likely change even more as time wears on. Like many modern innovations, film and cinematography have changed very quickly over a rather short period of time, before reaching a plateau of existence that won’t advance for a while, though it definitely will eventually. Still, it is impressive to think how far film has come, and looking back allows us to have a bit more appreciation for…

a few noteworthy points concerning her outlook on this business as a whole. wp-1473109505340.png What inspired you to pursue a career in the entertainment business? What kind of training have you had? I remember going to a little community theater production of The Invisible Man when I was a young kid, and I was AWED by the production. It was so funny, the audience was roaring, and I felt the energy of the love and joy of amazing storytelling flowing through me. I wanted to be those actors…
