Chosen film institution | Warner Bros.


Our chosen film institution for our own film is ‘Warner Bros.’.
  • The reasons why we have chosen to use this institutional company in our film are because:
  • They make quite a lot of horror genre films.
  • They are a very well-known film institutional company. 
 They gain a lot of money from the horror movies that they have produced.  Even though they are an American company, they still produce British films such as the ‘Harry Potter’ trilogy. They usually have big budgets for films which mean that props can be used and sets can be created. ‘Warner Bros.’ have a variety of mixed movie genres, which means that they are known for producing lots of different types of films, so it wouldn’t be weird to the public if they produced our horror film.

When researching ‘Warner Bros.’ we looked at the type of movies they usually film and how well each of them did. We also looked at all of the films that they produced in the past years of them being around. We wanted to make sure our film was suitable for ‘Warner Bros.’ and we wanted to make sure that it was a film that they would produce. To do this we looked at all the horror movies ‘Warner Bros.’ produced, read the plots of them and decided whether our film would suit the list of ‘Warner Bros.’ horror movies.


We didn’t look for any other institutional company’s when thinking who we wanted to produce our movie, because we had our minds set on ‘Warner Bros.’. We also did our research into whether any ‘Warner Bros.’ films had other producers working on the films with them. We did a lot of research and we found a mix of results. Some ‘Warner Bros.’ films had other producers that were part of the film and helped create it; however other ‘Warner Bros.’ films didn’t have any other producers helping. We decided to just use ‘Warner Bros.’ as our film institution as we knew that they have produced movies on their own before.

  1. Do they target a specific audience? Good choice of institution.

  2. Warner Brothers don't target specific audience types when producing films but some of their television channels are targeted at people between the ages 18 and 34. However, their films vary depending on what type of film they are producing and what is involved in the films. For Example there are some films rated U, 12, 12A, 18 etc.
