Abstract
ABSTRACTUrban networks in the modern economy have become a focus of research in geography and other related disciplines. However, the network of the motion picture industry has remained an underdeveloped topic in the relevant literature. Drawing on data from film production projects, this paper presents a pilot study of the changing inter-city networks that are created by the motion picture industry in mainland China over the past 15 years. Combining the perspectives of both the urban network and economic geography literature, this study not only advances the research on urban networks by offering new insights into the project-based, inter-firm cooperation networks of an important cultural industry sector but also enriches our knowledge of the functioning of local clusters and trans-local networks in new economic activities. In addition, the paper also contributes to our understanding of the evolution of modern urban networks in a transitional economic system.
