New Line Film Productions Inc., or
simply New Line Cinema, is an
independent American film studio
which was founded in 1967
It is a subsidiary studio of TimeWarner
since 1996, and was merged with larger
sister studioWarner Bros. in 2008.
New Line Cinema was famous for being
one of the film studios who helped
created both the Lord of the Rings and
Hobbit films, whilst also in recent years
creating multiple romantic films, and
sequels to already made romantic films,
like Sex andThe City andValentines
Day.
Warner Brothers Studio creates many
comedy films, and may be for the
reason in the jump of Romantic
Comedies that New Line Cinema has
created in recent years.
TimeWarner is the worlds largest media
conglomerate and has control of
multiple large media subsidiaries

3. My target audience for my Romantic film
is around the age of 16-28 year olds, with
a mostly female leaning audience.
The age is because mature audiences are
more likely to watch these films as they
can associate with the films, and can
understand the scenes of mature nature.
Romantic films have similar actors and
actresses, people who the audiences can
react well to, once they have seen them
in multiple films. For example Rachel
McAdams is a popular actress when it
comes to romantic films.
Love, life and dislike is a strong topic for
the audiences of this age range.They will
understand it more and could possibly be
going through the same as what the
characters from the film are going
through.

4. The film of which I will be creating will be
centred around a very sick woman, who
wants to follow all of her dreams before
she dies, through the help of her boy
friend.
Films to compete with, are One Day
(2011), created by Focus, who in the past
has not created many romantic films,
despite gaining $56 million with this book
adaption.
The Notebook, of course created by New
Line Cinema, and proved to be very
popular, even today, with a box office
revenue of twice the amount of One Day
TheVow, who gained 4 times as much
money as One Day at cinemas, features a
story similar to the plot of our own.
Created by SpyGlass, the production
company has made a few smaller
romantic comedies that pay off in later
years.

For New Line to be able to create a film,
which matches the love, romance and
upset of that inTheVow, but can capture
audiences from fans of the notebook.
Romantic films, are not the most
successful genre, but also do not cost a
lot to create one, often with a budget of
$15-20 million, the romantic genre has
racked up a massive $9 billion in total box
office revenue, out of 498 films. Putting
the genre at number 6 on the list.
However, the top genre is comedy with a
$40 billion box office.
By mixing both romance and comedy
together, box office revenue can be
maximised.
