In this volume, Paolo Sigismondi explores the dynamics of global media and entertainment, specifically analyzing the implications of the global rise of non-scripted entertainment (as reality TV programs) and the impact and consequences of the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) revolution on the content, delivery platforms, and overall business models of the media and entertainment landscape. This work aims at bridging the gap between media theories and industry practices in a rapidly evolving global mediascape, building on scholarship in the field and enriched by case studies and insights from business practice. This work demonstrates that the paradigms of the landscape are shifting, introducing the digital “glocalization” of entertainment, through which successful media crossing national and cultural borders incorporate both global and local features. Key questions raised include: Is the ICT revolution an example of disruptive technology for the global media and entertainment industry? Is the existing status quo challenged, and in, particular Hollywood’s global leadership? What are the global entities emerging as Hollywood’s main competitors in this technologically evolving landscape? Sigismondi argues that as new players are entering the field, new threats to Hollywood’s dominance are emerging. The global leaders in non-scripted entertainment, for example, are European-based global entities operating outside the Hollywood system. Meanwhile, the ICT revolution is modifying the contours and boundaries of the global mediascape. Sigismondi’s approach provides unique insight into how the forces of technology and globalization are transforming television, cinema, and online entertainment.

The global rise of streaming and social media platforms, and the influence of tech giants in increasingly more sectors of the economy including the media industry, have disrupted the status quo of the global media competitive landscape. This volume offers an insightful analysis of the profound changes in the competitive advantages in the media industry ushered in by digital convergence, and their ramifications. As Hollywood enters its second century, it faces novel challenges stemming from the digital revolution, which are greater, in magnitude and in impact, than any of those brought in by previous communication technology revolutions in the last century. These new challenges include the ascent of new competitors, leading conglomerates arising from the digital revolution, which as a result of the ever-expanding reach of digital convergence are successfully operating in the media sector as well. The new competitive dynamics are on display in the analysis of the streaming and social media landscapes. This book sheds light on the clash of two institutional logics within the new attention economy and its consequences on the competitive landscape. The legacy media institutional logics, represented by the legacy media conglomerates revolving around the Hollywood studios, which have established their primacy in the global mediascape for decades, now directly compete in the new landscape shaped by digital convergence with the digital media institutional logics identifying the tech giants emerging victorious from the digital revolution. The analysis utilizes the dichotomy between scripted and non-scripted media entertainment as a framework to assess the diverse competitive landscapes, business dynamics and their implications, of the different segments shaping the contours and boundaries of the media industry.
