Production Company

For our film we needed to decide on our own film production company, we wanted to create our own name and idea so we could add it to the start of our film and our posters. Below are some companies I looked at.

WARNER BROS
Warner Bros or Warner Brothers is an American film and television production company. Warner Bros is very well established and has been around since around 1903. The logo is a simple yellow and blue shaped outline with the initials WB in the centre the font is bold and large and easily stands out against any film poster or title.
I looked and researched warner bros and found that they have realeased a Film noir Classic Collection which contains eight films. I chose to look at warner bros as the films created were are inspirations. They produced Mildred Pierce which is a film I researched and influenced me in making our film. They also produced The big sleep, one of the first film noirs we watched in our lessons.



20TH CENTURY FOX
20th century fox is also an American film production company. It is one of the major companies and was founded in 1935. The image used by the company is very bold and powerful and really shows how they see themselves as a big contender in the business.20th Century Fox also produced many film noirs, including Laura and Fallen Angel. This is helpful as they are similar to what we are making and have huge experience across many films.



We then sat down as a group and had a conversation about ideas for production company names. We all put in different ideas and mixed them together, using names and initials. We then decided on 'A Stickman Production'. As a group we wanted this at the start of our film so we wrote it out on the macs and put it at the beggining.
We wanted this to flash up at the beginning and then go onto who was starring in our film. As a group we decided in the end that this looked to boring for the start of our film so we wanted to change it, we had a few ideas and decided that instead of having it on the computer we would write out the production company name and film us doing this. We wrote out the name on black card with white tipex to get the effect we wanted and then uploaded the clip onto the Mac computers and made the speed faster.
