This issue of the Hollywood Reporter talks about the effect that the COVID 19 pandemic has had on the film industry this summer. It’s not good according to a recent report. In fact the title says that the industry has actually been cut in half. That’s not good because movies are such an important part of American life so the lack of this is terrible. The report claims that filming declined very dramatically during the pandemic. This makes since due to social distancing issues. However it will be hard to recover from this decline. The good news however is that in September the filming schedules seemed to come back a little bit. Just like Dana White said at the RNC this year “try finding a way to reopen sports during a pandemic it’s not easy but we did it.” I think that same principle applies to movies and filming as well. I also agreed with white when he said that we still have a long way to go and nobody could have seen this pandemic coming. But I also agree that things are starting to come back again. And I hope that things can come back to regular filming as well.
