Summary, etc The management and labor culture of the entertainment industry.<br/>In popular culture, management in the media industry is<br/>frequently understood as the work of network executives, studio developers, and<br/>market researchers—“the suits”—who oppose the more productive forces of<br/>creative talent and subject that labor to the inefficiencies and risk aversion<br/>of bureaucratic hierarchies. However, such portrayals belie the reality<br/>of how media management operates as a culture of shifting discourses,<br/>dispositions, and tactics that create meaning, generate value, and shape media<br/>work throughout each moment of production and consumption.<br/><br/>Making Media Work aims to provide a deeper and more nuanced understanding of<br/>management within the entertainment industries. Drawing from work in critical<br/>sociology and cultural studies, the collection theorizes management as a<br/>pervasive, yet flexible set of principlesdrawn upon by a wide range of<br/>practitioners—artists, talent scouts, performers, directors, show runners, and<br/>more—in their ongoing efforts to articulate relationships and bridge<br/>potentially discordant forces within the media industries. The contributors<br/>interrogate managerial labor and identity, shine a light on how management<br/>understands its roles within cultural and creative contexts, and reconfigure<br/>the complex relationship between labor and managerial authority as productive<br/>rather than solely prohibitive. Engaging with primary evidence gathered through<br/>interviews, archives, and trade materials, the essays offer tremendous insight<br/>into how management is understood and performed within media industry contexts.<br/>The volume as a whole traces the changing roles of management both historically<br/>and in the contemporary moment within US and international contexts, and across<br/>a range of media forms, from film and television to video games and social<br/>media.<br/><br/>Source: https://www.amazon.in/Making-Media-Work-Entertainment-Communication-ebook/dp/B00LAGUHU6/ref=sr_1_4?crid=39IVLIZ16MIRC&keywords=Making+Media+Work&qid=1699447694&sprefix=making+media+work%2Caps%2C275&sr=8-4
