Summary

The movie and TV industries have been pummeled by changes in recent years. The pandemic decimated theater attendance and the emergence of streaming services changed the model that major studios have used for decades. George and Jeremy are joined by John Long, co-founder of Buddha Jones, one of the most highly regarded and successful trailer producers in Hollywood. Long and his team have worked directly with most of the major studios and best-known directors but have also expanded into marketing projects for television and streaming networks, winning numerous industry awards for creative campaigns. Buddha Jones has worked on several UFO-themed projects including the blockbuster hit NOPE. George and Jeremy talk with John about the future of Hollywood, challenges to the traditional business model, and about the art of making the perfect movie trailer. (John also takes the time to poke at George while recounting some of their long history together.) GOT A TIP?
