Hollywood film industry
The document provides a history of the Hollywood film industry, beginning with its origins on the East Coast of the US in the early 1900s. It then discusses how the industry shifted to Hollywood, California in the 1910s due to its mild climate and varied scenery. Hollywood soon became dominated by major studios producing hundreds of films per year. The Golden Age of Hollywood lasted from the 1920s-1950s, characterized by big studio productions and star systems. However, the studio system declined in the late 1940s due to federal antitrust actions that separated production and exhibition, as well as the rise of television which changed leisure habits.

my presentation on hollywood explaining the rise of Hollywood, and the factors that make it the most dominant film industry in the world.
Hollywood presentation by fatima waqar.
Hollywood became a successful film industry center in the early 1900s as filmmakers moved there to escape Thomas Edison's strict film production rules in New Jersey. Independent filmmakers established studios in Hollywood due to its ideal weather and varied landscapes. During the 1920s-1940s Hollywood's major studios, including Paramount, RKO, 20th Century Fox and MGM, controlled film production and distribution through exclusive actor contracts and theater ownership. This period is considered Hollywood's "Golden Age." The 1948 Supreme Court ruling that ended exclusive contracts and theater ownership marked the unofficial end of this era.

Hollywood started as a small community in 1870 that was later incorporated into Los Angeles in 1910. To escape patent lawsuits from Thomas Edison's film company on the East Coast, early filmmakers began moving to Hollywood in the early 1900s, establishing the first movie studios.
