What is the structure of Film industry?
The film industry goes through many stages to get the final production. This can take a while because there is so many things a film has to go through such as;
Film is made up of;
- Development - Idea of film, synopsis, Treatment, script, Funding.
- Production - Filming
- Post production - Editing, sound
- Distribution- Selling the film to cinemas.
- Exhibition - Film Festivals, Netflix, on demand, sky movies
What is the structure of the TV industry?
TV is made up of publicly funded channels,commercial channels,on demand channels. Lots of planning is in place just to create a production.
- Publicly funded - BBC - pay by viewers - liecense fee, TV channels.
- Commercial channel - ITV - sponsorship/ advertisements
- Pay by subscription - on demands channels
- Netflixs
- Amazon Prime
- Now TV
- Sky
- Virgin
- Publicly funded channels - BBC IPlayer
- Commercial on demand channels - ITV player.
large parts of the british TV is getting bought by american media companies.There is some hope channel 4 and ITV stood up to the US. Channel 4 and ITV are already a commercial channel so they would lose money .TV are threatened by the process of technology such as apple and google. TV is clearly a combat verhcile for tech and mobile companies and platforms.
My opinion is that TV is slowly dying off. The increase of technology is going to be take over TV. Such as Netflix, computers and games. If the US companies take over they want to aim more for commercials. People might not like this and stop watching.
