Mark Gooder

Producer

Mark's experience in the independent content business is extensive. From independent cinema management in Australasia in the 1980's to CEO of Icon, the LA-based financier, distributor and producer from 2006-2012, his keen eye for commercial independent content was evident in his acquisition of over 250 film titles. These included many of the most successful independent films of all time - PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM, THE IRON LADY, SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE, THE QUEEN, 12 YEARS A SLAVE, PHILOMENA to name a few. Being based in Los Angeles for over 15 years, including a period as President of Acquisitions for The Weinstein Company, has given Mark an overview of the industry that brings a global perspective to story ideas, execution and audience appeal that feeds into the ethos of Cornerstone. He says, "working with producers, writers and directors to fulfil their vision and marrying those ambitions to the marketplace is always at the core of our approach."

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
