<jats:p> Canadian filmmakers have had little success competing with Hollywood in the domestic market. Canadian films do not have the marketing budgets needed for the saturation television and newspaper advertising used by the Hollywood majors. But if Canadian film producers and distributors marketed their products as effectively as their Hollywood competitors, they would be expected to be quick to take advantage of a new, relatively low-cost marketing tool that is particularly suited to reaching niche audiences, namely, the Internet. In this paper, we compare the way Canadian, Hollywood major, and U.S. independent producers and distributors use the Internet to communicate with their target audiences. </jats:p> |
