From Bangladesh and Hong Kong to Iran and South Africa, film
industries around the world are rapidly growing at a time when new
digital technologies are fundamentally changing how films are made
and viewed. Larger film industries like Bollywood and Nollywood aim
to attain Hollywood's audience and profitability, while smaller,
less commercial, and often state-funded enterprises support various
cultural and political projects. The contributors to Anthropology,
Film Industries, Modularity take an ethnographic and comparative
approach to capturing the diversity and growth of global film
industries. They outline how modularity-the specialized filmmaking
tasks that collectively produce a film-operates as a key feature in
every film industry, independent of local context. Whether they are
examining the process of dubbing Hollywood films into Hindi,
virtual reality filmmaking in South Africa, or on-location shooting
in Yemen, the contributors' anthropological methodology brings into
relief the universal practices and the local contingencies and
deeper cultural realities of film production. Contributors. Steven
C. Caton, Jessica Dickson, Kevin Dwyer, Tejaswini Ganti, Lotte
Hoek, Amrita Ibrahim, Sylvia J. Martin, Ramyar D. Rossoukh
