Warner Bros. Warner Bros. is an American entertainment company. Founded 92 years ago in the year

1923 in Hollywood, Los Angeles. The headquarters for Warner Bros. is in Burbank California. Warner Bros. are one of the most popular and successful producing companies in the world. They have produced films such as American Sniper, The Hobbit Saga and The Shawshank Redemption.

After looking at the list of films that Warner Bros. have made I realised that they have a variety of genres however action/adventure films come up quite a lot. The Harry Potter series and The Hobbit Saga are both action/adventure genre films.

In recent years their action/adventure films have become really successful. The recent Batman films have been very successful and the gross that those films made is staggering:

Batman Begins- $205,343,774 Batman The Dark Knight- $533,316,061 Batman The Dark Knight Rises- $448,130,642

After looking at the list of the films that Warner Bros. have made I've started to feel as though they would be an ideal institution for my opening sequence as they’ve made many films in a genre that I like and considering.

Working Title Working Title was founded in the UK in 1983 and their main

headquarters is based in London. Working Title are slowly becoming one of the most known British film producers. They have released films such as Billy Elliot, Notting Hill and The Theory of Everything.

Working Title have a large variety of film genres and a lot of their films are based in the UK. It seems as though a lot of their films are romantic comedies such as Notting Hill and Love Actually.

These two films have been a massive success in the UK and they made a pretty decent gross:

Love Actually- $59,365,105 Notting Hill- $116,006,080

After looking at the films and their genres that Working Title I feel as though Working Title isn’t the best example to use for inspiration for my opening sequence.

Film 4 Film 4 is a British digital television channel which was founded in

1998. Film 4 is operated by one of the UK’s most popular TV channels Channel 4. Some of the films that Film 4 have made are The Inbetweeners Movie, The Iron Lady and On The Road.

Film 4 have a large variety of film genres that vary from comedy, biography and adventure.

Two of Film 4’s most popular and highest grossing films are:

The Inbetweeners Movie- £41,800,000 The Iron Lady- $30,004,924

After looking at the wide variety of genre films that Film 4 have released I think they could be a fairly decent example to use for my opening sequence. I believe that they would be able to distribute my end product well because the film is going to be UK based.
