"Beyond Utopia" attracted interest at Sundance from streamers like Amazon's Prime Video and Netflix. Interest peaked four years ago at the Sundance Film Festival, fueled by Amazon and Netflix, which paid a record $10 million for the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez doc "Knock Down the House." In the crime realm, WME advised, Netflix was seeking films based on big, well-known cases and scams like "Dahmer" and "Tinder Swindler." Filmmakers point to streamers' self-censorship and 'cold feet' over sensitive topicsSome filmmakers said there are still champions at the streamers for documentaries that push the envelope. "Beyond Utopia" is among a number of recent films that have been snubbed by the big streamers, despite winning awards and buzz.

Trying to maintain a career in Hollywood was "not something that was feasible for me to continue," this person told Insider. Insider spoke with eight current and former assistants at Hollywood companies, plus a former creative executive at a midsize film studio. Many hopefuls can't find jobs in an industry that's been wracked with head count reductions and budget cuts. Netflix's website lists just one open assistant job — a role in a non-creative vertical. At Paramount, which cut 25% of staff from its US cable networks earlier this year, there appear to be no open executive assistant jobs in entertainment capacities .

That's odd, she thought, then toggled over to Facebook to search for clues about the issue on a group for MGM Resorts International loyalty members. There, she learned that the largest casino owner in Las Vegas had fallen victim to a cybersecurity breach. The situation entered its sixth day on Friday, with booking capabilities still down and MGM Resorts offering penalty-free room cancelations through Sept. 17. The security attacks that triggered an FBI probe shatter a public perception that casino security requires an “Oceans 11”-level effort to defeat it. It's true, Kim said, that casino giants like MGM Resorts and Caesars are protected by sophisticated — and expensive — security operations.

☆ How Parrot Analytics shook up Hollywood by picking streaming hits
  + stars: | 2023-09-08 | by ( Lucia Moses | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +10 min
The Hollywood strikes thrust Parrot Analytics, which measures film and TV demand, into the spotlight. Parrot Analytics, a decade-old research firm, has in recent years built a complicated reputation in Hollywood with its proprietary system for measuring audience interest in films and TV shows. As streaming consumption skyrocketed and companies like Netflix kept audience data under wraps, Parrot offered one of the few apples-to-apples measurements across different series and films. Some producers and agents say Parrot has brought much-needed transparency to content measurement. "Parrot Analytics would reward quite a few shows that weren't the most viewed shows in America," he wrote.
