1. Warner Brothers
Warner Brothers are a production company that topped the chart for
market share in the year of 2013, they achieved a percentage of
17.1% share of the market, grossing a total of almost 1 billion 863
million dollars off of 34 movies. Warner Brothers' all time top grossing
film was The Dark Knight making $533,345,358 and shown in 4,366
theatres this film was a big success for the studio and made them a
serious amount of money. With such films as The Harry Potter
franchise and The Hobbit under their belts, Warner Brothers have an
extreme eye for special effect and fantasy, this shows with sheer
excellence in their films and anticipation is always high when a
Warner Brothers film is announced
Paramount
Paramount Pictures are also a production company that did well in
2013, placing 7th in the top ten market share, they achieved a
percentage of 8.9% in market shares with a total gross of $966,900.
A heavy decrease in comparison to their total gross of over $1b just
two years previous. This says a lot about how the film industry can
fluctuate and one company will not stay top forever due to the blatant
unpredictability of the industry. Paramount have a good back
catalogue of films such as the Transformers franchise as well as the
Indiana Jones films and the Mission Impossible pictures. Paramount
Pictures has done extremely well in the past decade, never falling
under 7th place in the top ten market share, this shows how the
studio has the grit and determination needed to achieve great results
and more importantly, create great films,
Buena Vista
Buena Vista are also another company that create films. This specific
company came 2nd in the market share for 2013, grossing a total of
$1b 700 million, and releasing total of 17 movies. This is a
noticeable decrease in the amount of pictures produced in
comparison to the 1st place in market share Warner Brothers. This is
an enlightening look on how the amount of films made effects how
much money said studio is going to generate. Buena Vista created
films such as Iron Man and Toy Story. As well as creating the Pirates
of the Caribbean films. Buena Vista definitely have the ability to
produce top class films and can be expected create greats in the
future.
