Abstract:The study of innovation in cultural industries has addressed primarily the role played by organizational and environmental determinants. Research on teams has shown that innovation also depends on team composition and related team-level processes. This study develops two hypotheses arguing that the introduction of newcomers, and new combinations of both newcomers and old-timers in teams show positive relationships with innovation. The study tests this theory in the U.S. feature film industry and considers genre innovation as the measure of innovation. Data on 6446 motion pictures produced by the Hollywood Majors in the period 1929–1958 were used for empirical analysis.
