6:00 CPA here. I've done the Hollywood accounting before. I'll try to explain it. Basically it's how much overhead you assign to a movie project. Star Wars for example. The cost of the light saber, the locations in Spain and the crew are obviously direct costs to the project. But what about the Disney headquarters, the accountants, lawyers, IT, the CEO's salary. The project technically benefits from some of that so a proportion should be allocated. What if new cameras are bought for the Star Wars movie that can be used on other subsequent Disney films? Do you allocate the cost evenly or maybe accelerate the amount for Star Wars since the value of the camera depreciates fastest in the first year? All sorts of overhead items you can allocate and justify. And if you had 10 objective accountants prepare the project P&L you'd have ten different amounts of profit. Understand this is completely separate from GAAP and financial disclosures to the SEC and shareholders. It's perfectly legal and quite common in all industries and I definitely would not label it as 'cooking the books'. And yes if you have a goal in mind then your objective mind tends to flop on that side of the fence. My personal experience- I worked for an IT staffing company and our biggest client was IBM. They really slapped us around as a small vendor and had some outrageous things written into their contract. One of them was benchmark reporting. This meant that we had to report our profits we made on them. You bet we loaded the report with as many overhead costs as we could justify. If we simply showed our revenues and direct costs it looked like we were making money off them and they would use that during the next negotiation of contract. So was part of the CEO's pay used for the IBM contract? What portion of the corp hq building was used to support that client? Umbrella insurance, my cost of putting the report together, cleaning lady, ect. Yes we loaded all of those into our IBM P&L. A good fix that protects people like Tom Cruise and Keanue Reeves from Hollywood accounting is to have your contract based on gross revenues, not profits. Those are a lot harder to manipulate and hide.

Film composers are rarely given much time to complete their scores. The preview screening of "Gone With The Wind" used Alfred Newman's score for "The Prisoner of Zenda" because Max Steiner had not yet competed the score for GWTW. Trailers rarely use music from a film's score because the trailer is often made while the score is still being composed.

Titanic has never made profit despite being one of the most profitable box office returns on initial costs. The director even forgoes his pay rate to produce the film the way he wanted and made it back on the back end with a percentage of box office . People think entertainment industry unions are bad but they have to literally spell out smallest details, like that deli meat and cheese slices must fit a slice of bread and what a "normal" sandwich slice of bread is or your meal during working 20 hour days without real meal breaks, get crap like literally one finger sandwich per person . What wrong, they provided a "sandwich per person" which is a "meal" per contract..... . Look up "concert riders" and you'll see what seem like diva terms, like some artists demand all furniture most be white, that so they can't use dark furniture to hide the filth and body fluid stains from furniture that sits backstage and is covered in disease and filth. Never cleaned and not replaced until made to. Often in locker rooms that smell of sweat and urine...... A lot of the asinine stuff was written into future contracts because they dealt with Promoters and Producers who were more crooked the slimiest lawyers.... Hollywood book keeping is something else and they do percentages on the returns so that all of it goes somewhere, so very few films every turn a profit. At least on the official books shown to the tax man & public..... No politician would dare goes up against the media empire if they have visions of running a reelection....

I've noticed this since the 70's, and wondered why the streets are always wet at night scenes. At some point since then, I read that the streets are watered for night scenes because the camera doesn't capture the color of the pavement realistically when the street is dry. It comes out as all the same flat color. (A similar caveat occurs when taking a photo of an ice cube. All the ones you've seen in ads are fake.) I'm sure these days camera technology can easily overcome that, and now water is mainly used for the effects described in this video.

It's actually not so unreasonable to record the whole score in very little time these days.

Taking issue with number 6. Aside from the production cost of making a movie, studios/production companies have to pay 50% of the box office take to the theatre’s. Additionally marketing budgets (depending on the release) can exceed the production budget (See the last TMNT movie or Transformers franchise). Production/Studios have to pay their employees, applicable taxes, office cost, studio costs, rent and utilities. My point is I think people are naive when it comes down it. A lot of movies don’t technically makes profit but rather go to cover part of the Studio/production overhead costs. It’s also a long standing trend that movies typically don’t start making profit until the 4+ weeks of release.

Way back in the day, any advertisement of a business such as a gas station, or a large department store, (or anything else that may feature, intentionally or not, a parking lot in the foreground of the shot), would have to go through an air-brush session in the production of photos for the ad. To get rid of all the discolorations on the surface. Then someone discovered that wetting the parking lot will hide a LOT of the same things for FAR less money. Air-brushing is an expensive and time consuming process. Wetting the ground is far easier and much cheaper.

Let's just say that effects budget for Hudson Hawk is the same as another movie that was released that year, and that movie is Terminator 2 which used tons of special effects and had huge action sequences... Fact Fiend did an interesting episode on it.

Yeah, I never felt spoiled by trailers. It was a very strange idea the first time someone said it. I never recall what I’ve seen from a trailer while watching its movie and start comparing. I start watching and go for the ride. Guess I’m a casual viewer. 🤗

Music and movies! While filming the movie "Brazil", the song by the same name was played quietly on set between takes. The director wanted to create a surreal atmosphere for the cast and crew by making down-time on set feel like a shopping mall or elevator.

I wouldn't say it's a surprise that music is one of the last parts of production, as you yourself said the ideal score for a film needs to be tailored to the action in order to best fit a scene, so it is to be expected that they would wait until at least some scenes are completely finished to start composing the score.

It should be obvious to anyone that the score comes close to the end.

I think the earpiece is a good idea to be honest. If it gets a better performance (with the ambient sounds), and fewer takes (with fed lines) then that's all the better since time on set is expensive.

Here is one for you. Studios can make most of their money back on a huge blockbuster before a ticket is even sold. We all see companies do tie in advertisements with big blockbuster film. Even though it is advertisement for the films the companies still pay the studio for the rights. For example you remember Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice. Warner brothers reportedly spent $250 million on the films budget alone. There was so much hype about it that companies were lining up to do tie in deals with it. Companies wanted to do deals so much Warner Brothers reportedly made $175 million in tie in deals alone.

So epic means to Streisanding your movie. Make sure the Villain uses an IPhone and wait to be sued. That way you get free advertising and a reference for a future job with Trey Parker or Seth Green.

Water in movies. About 50 years ago when I was a very young man I worked at the same airport from where JFK, Jr. departed before his fateful demise. The main ramp (it's not called a tarmac in aviation parlance) was being used to film the movie staring Dustin Hoffman "Who is Harry Kellerman et cet." The entire ramp ( or apron) was painted with a reflective black and shiny tar like substance to make it look like like it had just rained. I never realized why they did that because the movie was filmed during the day and it wasn't raining during the filming. Now I know why.

Number 1 is actually kind of obvious. Think about it. score is created FOR the scene, so for composer it is much easier to create fitting score after watching scene themselves instead of getting scene described to them. Plus that way they can rewatch scene several times while figuring out best musical arrangement for that particular scene
