Movie audiences are getting increasingly global, so how is Hollywood adapting, what are the opportunities for other countries, and how can small, independent film-makers compete? Ed Butler asks producer James Richardson of Vertigo Films how studios balance the tastes of an increasingly multinational audience with artistic and commercial imperatives. Media lawyer Hakan Kousetta explains how film makers in Europe raise the money needed to get a project off the ground. And we hear from Stuart Ford, film distributor with IM Global, about how Hollywood is navigating the big shifts in viewing patterns.
