Distributor
Definition:
From studios to exhibitors, the distributor sells viewing rights for a finished film. Somewhat of an intermediary function, distribution creates initial revenue for the source that financed the project. Its basic function is to sell the viewing rights of a motion picture to specifically designated areas. Based on the elements involved in the feature, the costs of these rights vary and are just a fraction of the income for distributors.
Talent
Definition:
Primarily refers to actors used in advertising. Can also refer to voice performers, musicians, etc.
Management Company
Definition:
The umbrella under which a group of managers function as a single incorporated entity. Long known for small client lists and focused attention on development of clients, management companies, in the last decade, have, in most cases, shifted their role in the market. Today, most management companies perform dually as client representation and producer.
