About this product

Product Information

Audiences love the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, but beyond the red carpet and behind the velvet curtain exists a legion of individuals who make showbiz work: agents. Whether literary, talent, or indie film, agents are behind the scenes brokering power, handling mediation, and doing the deal-making that keeps Hollywood spinning. In Representing Talent, Violaine Roussel explores the little-known but decisive work of agents, turning the spotlight on how they help produce popular culture. The book takes readers behind the scenes to observe the day-to-day activities of agents, revealing their influence on artistic careers and the prospects of Hollywood's forthcoming projects. Agents are crucial to understanding how creative and economic power are intertwined in Hollywood today. They play a key role in the process by which artistic worth and economic value are evaluated and attributed to people and projects. Roussel's fieldwork examines what having relationships really means for agents, and how they perform the relationship work that's at the heart of their professional existence and success. Representing Talent helps us to understand the players behind the definition of entertainment itself, as well as behind its current transformations.

    The item was exactly as advertised, with no damage to the cover or pages. It was packed quite securely, with no chance to slip around and get bumped corners. The price was very affordable, considering it isn't easy to track down a copy. I only marked down one star because it took some time to ship out, which could have been better communicated in the listing. Still, highly recommend the seller.

    Arrived new, sealed, and well packaged. Slightly more expensive than most manga but it’s less common and available, especially brand new. (I paid $16, while other listings were well over $25 ‘used’ and without shipping costs included.) Well worth the price and free shipping. Shipping time was decent but order processing time could’ve been better. Otherwise no issues. Great seller communication. Overall a wonderful experience.
