Film Institutions

There are many film institutions around, the vast majority come from the states. Some are more well known and successful than other.

The major institutions are:

• Warner Bros.
• New Line Cinema
• Fox
• Twisted Pictures
• Universal
• Path'e
• Sony Pictures
• Dreamworks
• Disney
• Pixar
• Paramount
• Lucas film
  

The Warner Bros. company dominates the whole market. Some of the other institutions are actually owned by Warner Bros. Other than film, these institutions work with other forms of media like music and television.

New Line Cinema

New Line Cinema was founded in 1967 and is now one of the major American film studios .They initially began as an independent film studio, it has now become a subsidiary of Time Warner (one of the world's largest conglomerates of entertainment and media) they produce and distribute their own films, however, it does so now as a part of Warner Bros. Out side the U.S New Line Cinema does not distribute it's own films, they contract other studios to do it for them such as "Entertainment Film" in the UK and "Alliance" in Canada.

New Line has been involved in all types of film genres their most famous are:

• The Lord of the Rings - Fantasy
• Austin Powers - Comedy
• The Texas Chainsaw Massacre - Horror
• The Notebook - Romance
• Mortal Kombat - Action
• Seven - Thriller

Other films by New Line Cinema can be found here http://www.newline.com/archive.html

I believe New Line Cinema would be a good institution to produce, distribute and market my thriller because of all its past experience in all film genres and the directors which they have employed like Peter Jackson and Guillermo Del Toro.
