5. Traditional and new ways of showcasing a movie…
• Traditional ways : through the theatres
• Both in multiplexes and single screen theatres with the help of
projectors.
• Newer ways: digital technologies in os and 1s and store the
information in the digital form.
• Television,DTH,cable networks, compact disk etc.
• Now a days most of the movies are recorded by a digi cam and
only a smaller no by the traditional means because of the cost
factor and the better quality.but there are some exceptions to

6. Digital means is better in quality than the traditional means.
It can also help in controlling the piracy problem.
So many theatre owners are planning to for digital technology
which demand a huge expenditure.

technology the production houses would start releasing the
movies in the digital form.

7. The different phases before a movie release
Producer - Distributer - Exhibiter
Pre production, production phase ,post production.
Success of the movie depends on the profit of the
distributers
Lesser the budget of the movie greater chances of the movie
being a hit and rarely on the content of the movie.(Jodha
Akbar,Guzarish,Kites)
In the last four years only a single film year is able to cross
the 100 crores revenue(3 idiots,Ghazni,Dabang and Ready)

8. The profit Sharing…
The studio or the producer either sales the film in a fixed price
or profit sharing wise.
The distributer distributes the movie on a leasing basis or profit
sharing basis. If its on a profit sharing basis then there are
some accepted ways how the profits are shared.
Generally the producer and the exhibiter earns good profit but
the job of a distributer is very risky and it holds the over all
success or failure of a film.

9. Basis on which the rights are sold
The distributor buys the movie on the over all quality of the
movie like the content of the
story,actors,music,cinemetography, budget of the project etc.
Sometimes only the distribution right of the movie is given to
the distributers while the music rights and the tv rights are
kept intact with the producer or sometimes all the rights are
sold to the lone distributer
Again while the theatres are looking for the movies there are
bidding for the film and the theatre with the highest bid gets
the right to exhibit the film. The bidding again depends on
factors such as the star cast, the production house ,the
