“Q – How do you make your subjects comfortable during interviews?
Mark – I spend a lot of time with them beforehand. I always try to establish a relationship with them. That may mean going out to breakfast with them beforehand or pre-interview phone call. I always spend at least an hour beforehand somehow. I think it’s essential that you don’t go in cold.”
Page 21, Chapter 1
“Q – What are the common mistakes that you see documentary filmmakers make?
Mark – One thing is that they haven’t thought clearly through what the audience needs to know to understand this film. They’re so immersed in it, they make assumptions that the audience knows what they know. People are afraid of narration. It’s sometimes the easiest way to get from A to B and to provide the exposition that you need.”

Page 89, Chapter 3
“Broadly speaking, right holders of today no longer are able to control the distribution of their music.”
Page 118, Chapter 4
“The distance between the amateur and the professional artist has been radically reduced. Even through content generated by users may be important to music firms, every teenager yearning for the limelight will not succeed… In the end, only an extremely small number of people will be able to make a decent living as a creative force in the music industry.”
