Existing Film Company Production Research

In the modern day, there are a lot of common film production companies but there are specific oligopolies that dominate the market thus meaning that they tend to have the majority of the market power. Most of the famous film companies are are historic and so are well established. The film company I will be focusing on today is 20th century fox.

     It was officially founded in May of 1935 when two film companies merged and made one huge company. The two companies that merged were Fox Films and 20th century pictures. The founders of this massive company were Joseph Schenck, Darryl F Zanuck, Raymond Griffith and William Goetz.

    20th Century Fox has produced an enourmous amount famous films. Some of these are:
  • Home Alone
  • Ice Age
  • Star Wars
  • Simpsons
  • Family Guy
   As you can see, 20th Century Fox not only produces movies but also vell known T.V. programmes. Moreover, they have thier own channel in America which is well recognisable and dominates the channel listings. As they are 77 years old, you would assume they have done a huge amount for the film industry as they are still one of the main players in the film market.

    Despite this, I would'nt like to put 20th Century Fox on my movie as I believe that a film production company such as this one doesn't really specialize in my chosen genre which is urban- action and thus isn't reall recognised with this genre.
