Glossary

“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet.”
“Romeo and Juliet” by William Shakespeare

Oftentimes, talking about film and television seems like you’re speaking an entirely different language. Key Grip? Greenlight? Scale? In order to be knowledgeable about the business side of entertainment, the Media Mogul gives you definitions of the terms you need to know to navigate the murky waters of “The Biz.”

This is not even close to being a complete collection of all the relevant terms. Many of them are too obscure or technical to be included here. The goal is to provide context and the definitions listed provide the simplest way to understand often complex terminology. Hopefully this Glossary will prompt you to find out more.
