Bourdieus, 1984, notion of cultural codes). The lm marketing mix comprises of the creative team, actors, script/genre, age classication and release strategy. The creative team incorporates the actors and directors as well as producers, cinematographers and other creative personnel involved in the lm. In this way, this chapter moves beyond studies of lm marketing which have used the star (namely the leading actor) as a measure of success and of studies of stardom which only focus on the acting talent, overlooking other possible stars which may be recognised by the lms audience. While much of the focus on stars is limited to consideration of casting decisions and star value of actors, this book considers the range of possible stars which a lm may contain and argues that different types of lm, in terms of genre, budget and so on, determine the identication of the star. While for big budget, mass appeal lms, the star may indeed be the actor, for many smaller lms the director, or in some cases the producer, cinematographer or other members of the creative team may play a similar role to that attributed to the actors as stars in works such as Dyers (2007) seminal book. http://www.download-it.org/learning-resources.php?promoCode=&partnerID=&content=story&storyID=19979
