Acerca de esta escucha
Are you a student or current entertainment professional who wants to discover how others succeeded in the entertainment business? Creating a Career in Entertainment presents real-life examples of how to build a behind-the-scenes career.
Author Elaine Spooner was a technology change agent in Hollywood for over thirty years during Hollywood's digital revolution. She presents can-do stories to help listeners visualize their potential. The author met diverse professionals during Hollywood’s digital revolution, as she experienced it at Internet startups, 21st Century Fox, Warner Bros., Disney, and Universal.
Chapters in this book include success takeaways, interviews from behind the screens, and expert advice about how to get a job and build a career. The Animation section profiles a newly minted animator. The Below-the-Line Production, Music Historian, and Finance sections include stories about a writer’s assistant for multiple TV series, a rock band travel manager and photographer, and a Business Affairs executive.
Two Performers discuss how they pivoted career paths in a changing market upended by a pandemic. Television and Game Producers and a Writer talk about producing interactive games, websites, hit TV series, plays, and films. Listeners learn about four successful self-starters in the Entrepreneurs section. The Marketing and Television Distribution sections introduce people responsible for championing technology breakthroughs in Internet media delivery.
The last two sections are stories of Technology Design and Leadership experts who experienced Hollywood’s digital revolution.
She wrote about the industry first in the memoir Outside the Spotlights: Conversations with Unsung Creators Behind the Screens in Hollywood, also available on Amazon.
“I wrote the books to illustrate what can happen when you’re willing to look in unexpected places for a challenging career. I did it. The forty people you’ll meet in Creating a Career in Entertainment did it. You can, too.”
