To Whom it May Concern:  
As you are aware, the film we are tasked with producing, though certainly based in science fiction, will involve a great deal of real science, including physics and astronomy, topics which are not particularly well versed in our industry. My goal in creating this movie is to make it as thoughtful and realistic as possible, so that it begs the question for the average moviegoer: Could that actually happen? Additionally, with such a practical and entertaining applicable of science, we will be able to create a movie that will have an affect on critics, thus trickling down to the movie goers who bring in the revenue. With that said, it is vital that we hire a team of competent experts to incorporate the ideas necessary to make the movie realistic. I believe that with a team of knowledgeable consultants, we will be able to make a film for the ages, one that will leave real world scientists in awe.  I look forward to hearing from you in this regard.

Preproduction on our upcoming sci-fi film starts next week. I know that extra money in our budget is scarce. But we require a mathematician and a physicist to make our visual effects look more realistic. Our audience is smart. They can easily spot poor special effects. The marginal cost to acquire realistic animation and visual effects is far outweighed by the marginal benefit of making the film more entertaining and attracting a larger audience.

To accommodate the change in marginal cost that is due to the cost of consultants, we may have to make trade-offs with the production staff and extras. While I value the work done by the production staff and am reluctant to cut them, it may be necessary if we can’t find another way to pay for the consultants. The consultants are critical to our success in the industry, so unfortunately, letting go some of our production staff must be our opportunity cost to make sure our movies are realistic. I know it seems a little harsh to take this step. But substituting consultants for production staff will ensure higher returns at the box office. It will also increase our chances of winning awards for visual effects. Higher returns will ensure that our employees and stockholders are satisfied, since they seek monetary incentives, and the visual effects awards will increase our reputation in the industry, a nonmonetary incentive that is just as important.

However, the movement sidelined the African-American people despite the fact that they suffered from oppressive Jim crow laws.
