Task 10 - Research into the film industry

The film industry is a collaboratioin of the technological and commercial institutions of filmaking which includes, film studios, film production comapnies, cinematography, editing, screen writing, film festivals, distribution, actors, film directors, etc. The movie industry, due to the amount of money it creates, the film industry quickly became controlled by big production companies, Lionsgate, Universal, Paramount, Pixar, etc. This made it harder for independent films to be noticed and rewarded for the talent shown and put into them. But the development of sites such as youtube, etc has enabled these film makers to be noticed and the independent film industry to evolve. Currently in today's modern era of film the largest box office markets are the United States, China and Japan. This is world wide but in Europe the biggest film productions occur in the United Kingdom, France and Spain.
