How to Profit from Making Movies

I just love this kind of infographic. It's packed full of business studies goodies and is very student-friendly. BusinessWeek has produced this graphic which outlines some key features of the how revenues and profits are earned in the global movie industry. Lots of relevant concepts in here, not least the product life cycle (just look what is happening to the market for DVD rentals by mail in the US) and the relationship between film producers and their distribution channel (in particular the cinemas).You could simply print it off and give it to students and ask them to identify as many business studies topics (relevant to their course) as possible.Take a look and see how you might use it in a lesson.
