Keynote speaker Peter Cuneo from Marvel promised his powerpoint presentation from his keynote at our MOY event this week - since there was little time for him to actually present it: see above.
I know all who attended will rave for weeks to come on what he did talk about: Ironman production (complete with the Ironman fantastic trailer!) and The Incredible Hulk, my personal favorite, with amazing trailor video, and how the brand image of Marvel's characters is handled (hint: as if they are human), and how they are each separate unto themselves, but all part of the bigger whole.
His experience turning Marvel around, creating a brand power-hourse from the ashes of a group of burning comic book heroes, is just one of many he could have told us. He's the turnaround King and we all hope he'll come back to do the real presentation - the "here's how I did it" presentation, someday. More on Peter another time...stories of movie production and Robert Downey Jr. and Gwenth Paltrow.
