Film Production Companies

Film Production Companies

The production of cinematic motion pictures and television films; the principal branch of cinematography. What we see on the screens in front of us, looks all free flowing, but there is always a lot of hard work, effort, time, money and willpower to produce the end product for the audience.
Film production takes place at motion-picture studios—enterprises that specialise in various types of films, such as feature motion pictures, documentaries, popular science films, educational films, and animated cartoons. Motion pictures are classified as black-and-white, color, wide-screen, large-format, multiscreen, or stereoscopic films, depending on the cinematographic systems and technological means used.
Film production is characterised by a close interaction of art and technology in the production process; the high labour input of production and the relatively high cost of films; the large number of creative workers and technical specialists who take part in making films; the use of complex technology and expensive materials; the dependence of outdoor motion-picture filming on weather conditions; and the necessity of assembling actors from various theatres, military units, means of transport, and museum displays during filming.

Examples of film production companies are listed below:

Twentieth Century Fox


Founded on May 31 1935. Fox Films(1915) and 20th Century Pictures (1933) merged together to form 20th Century Fox Film Corporation.

Universal Studios

Founded April 30, 1912 (1912-04-30) (as Universal Film and Manufacturing Company) has been running (7002100000000000000100 years, 7002222000000000000222 days).

Warner Bros.


Founded in 1918 as Warner Bros. Studios, then formed as Warner Bros. Pictures on April 4 1923

There are many more film production companies out there for film production but, the three I have listed, I feel have produced many action films suited for my film assignment, as my genre is urban action I will take inspiration from the past work of the film production companies and implement them as appropriately.
