There are three main levels of film production: Hollywood, British, and local. The document discusses the film production and distribution companies involved in the filmmaker's local production. Local and independent production companies like CandiStudios and Marsh Media were used rather than major conglomerate studios. The six biggest production companies are Sony, Warner Bros., Disney, Fox Searchlight, Universal, and Paramount but the film was too small to be produced by one of these major studios.

2. There are three main levels in the film
industry:
 For our film we had Hollywood
CandiStudios as our British
Local
Production company
and Marsh Media as
our Distribution
company.
 Due to our film being a
low budget and local
production we didn’t
have big production
companies, such as OUR DISTRIBUTION COMPANY
Disney or Warner.

3.  The two
companies we
have are not
conglomerate,
which means a
combination of
two or more
corporations that
fall under one
corporate group.
 Our companies
are small,
independent
companies
perfect for our
film.

5. These big six companies are able to access
press and publicity networks.
 The six biggest production
companies are:
 Sony
 Time Warner
 Disney
 Fox Searchlight
 Universal
 Paramount
 These are conglomerate companies
and massive Hollywood production
companies. OBSESSION was not a
Hollywood film so it was not produced
by any of these companies. These are
a couple more reasons why:

6.  In regards to Distribution  This promises:
these are the big things  A Big Budget
when your film is a  Big Production Values
Hollywood production:
 Big Stars
 Global
 American Values and
 Digital and 35mm
Ideologies.
 Dominates Biggest Cinema
Chains
 Marketing Machines
 Money to spend on
advertising
 Realise the power of the
internet in advertising

8.  With British cinema:
 The Distribution is
cheaper
 They rely more on the
internet
 The TV releases are BBC
This promises a smaller audience,
and film 4 up to 40million, mostly below
2million,
 The money may come Home grown stars
from : Lower and cheaper production
 The lottery values
 BBC
 BFI
 Film4
 Private investors

10.  We are able to offer
a cinematic release
and DVDS with our
companies as well as
an online release on
Vimeo.
 Small localised films have
the power to distribute
their films over the
internet using sites such
as:
 Vimeo
 Youtube
 Twitter
 Facebook
 Your own website

11.  OBSESSION had actors who
have never been in a big
Hollywood film before-
these actors are new and
breaking out in the film
business. The film itself
didn’t have a big name
director either.
 These are some
reasons why the film is
a local film and why we
didn’t have the biggest
production/distributio
n companies
