Production Industry:
The Media Production Sector has been severely affected by the recent pandemic. Worldwide production closed down right from the beginning, in order to comply with the new social distancing norms.
In early March 2020 , it was predicted that the global box office could lose US$5 billion as a result of the pandemic. This amount could skyrocket to between US$15 billion and US$17 billion, if cinemas did not reopen by the end of May 2020 (which they haven’t).

US$4,6 billion by June 2020.

When the pandemic comes to an expected end around Q4/2021, production will ramp up again.
Huge content gaps must be closed to meet the needs of cinemas, TV – Stations and Streaming – Platforms.
