| Hi, Greetings! Kara Swisher, Walt Mossberg and I are less than two weeks away from Code Media, where we — and you — will be talking to the most interesting and important people at the intersection of media and technology. We’ve got a pretty amazing agenda for you. But we can’t help ourselves: We added another great speaker anyway. He’s Jason Blum, who runs Blumhouse Productions, the Hollywood studio that has figured out how to make huge hits on a tiny budget. If you like horror films, he’s the guy who brought you “The Purge” and “Paranormal Activity.” If you like Oscar-winning dramas, he’s the guy who brought you “Whiplash.” And if you like HBO true-crime documentaries, he’s the guy who brought you “The Jinx.” More importantly, if you’re someone who’s trying to figure out how to compete with rivals who have much, much bigger budgets, he’s a guy you want to listen to. Sound good? We know. That’s why we can’t wait to start. Lucky for us, Code Media is coming very soon: February 13 and 14, at The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel, in Dana Point, California. Register here and we’ll see you there. Peter Kafka |
