The Power players is the first story to use real actors as the characters, who also play characters in a TV show within the storyline. This novella sweetens the dimensions of entertainment potential by allowing the reader to fall into the lives of actors who we all know, while simultaneously being introduced to a TV show they are producing.David Duchovny leads the journey as he works as producer on yet another presumed hit show, "David and Grey", starring himself. Jaclyn Smith is one of the more involved executive producers. Her essence brings a professionalism and calm maturity to counter the id of Duchovny. Babysitting the caricatures of Carla Gugino, Stephen Tobolowsky, Gary Cole, and then finally Sasha Grey, it becomes a curious case of a Long Island Iced Tea of personalities.A stalker announces his intention to kill Duchovny and Sasha. They're instructed to use the show to speak to the stalker to lure him out. Duchovny then finds himself trailed by every cast member, and those who want to be in the TV show, including Bob Saget.Duchovny has a confrontation with Danny Strong, a cut below Duchovny's taste who claims he's negotiating a deal with the writer of his current pilot, for yet another show called "Airstream". Duchovny takes it personally, because he wasn't informed, and sets out on a mission to be attached to "Airstream", while producing his current show, "David and Grey".In a complex set of circumstances, Duchovny must weave his life into negotiating not only with actors, but now the writer, whom they call E.D. He wants David & Grey renamed back to the original title, "Trade Wars", and have Sasha's character changed from rich girl to the original backstory of adult film star.Trying to please everyone makes Duchovny into a whore, while he ultimately sets out to please himself. Duchovny plays his expected essence as a tongue and cheek funny man, who isn't quite sure why he goes through so much trouble to win, but as he does, we like him more and more.The Power Players is a story about making a television pilot called "Trade Wars". It's also about negotiating for the rights to "Airstream" by the same writer. As we do, we fall into the "Trade Wars" pilot where Duchovny plays a former detective who gets out of jail after a frame job, and offered an underground law enforcement opportunity. The Power Players is everything you want in a story about the business. Playing in and out of the dysfunction of actors, the complexity of negotiating deals, all the while trying to avoid being killed by a civilian. In Hollywood, be careful what you wish for, because it may just come so true, it'll kill you. The Power Players is a high stakes game set as a treatment for a presumed TV series adaptation.
The phenomenal growth of gaming has inspired plenty of hand-wringing since its inception--from the press, politicians, parents, and everyone else concerned with its effect on our brains, bodies, and hearts. But what if games could be good, not only for individuals but for the world? In Power Play, Asi Burak and Laura Parker explore how video games are now pioneering innovative social change around the world. As the former executive director and now chairman of Games for Change, Asi Burak has spent the last ten years supporting and promoting the use of video games for social good, in collaboration with leading organizations like the White House, NASA, World Bank, and The United Nations. The games for change movement has introduced millions of players to meaningful experiences around everything from the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to the US Constitution. Power Play looks to the future of games as a global movement. Asi Burak and Laura Parker profile the luminaries behind some of the movement's most iconic games, including former Supreme Court judge Sandra Day O’Connor and Pulitzer-Prize winning authors Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn. They also explore the promise of virtual reality to address social and political issues with unprecedented immersion, and see what the next generation of game makers have in store for the future.
Traces the single-generation transformation of sports from a cottage industry to a global business, reflecting on how elite athletes, agents, TV executives, coaches, owners, and athletes who once had to take second jobs worked together to create the dominating, big-ticket industry of today.
