Article Abstract:

The article examines the studio and post-studio eras of the Hollywood film industry, comparing the integrated hierarchies of the former to the flexible-hub resource provider networks that typify the latter. The authors argue that transforming and mobilizing capabilities influence the transformation of resource bundles into films, and that the co-evolutionary process is dominated by activities geared mobilizing rather than transforming capabilities.
