Genre Investigation: Production Companies

The use of production companies is crucial to a film's genre as certain productions specialise in specific genres. Film research indicates what production companies could be used through exemplar films and the type of productions which produce the film.

Paramount Pictures:
Wolf of Wall Street:                                                                                The Gambler:








  • Paramount pictures is a contender to be production company that would apply to our film idea because they have experience in dealing with our genre as an urban crime drama thriller with the likes of 'The Gambler' and 'Wolf of Wall Street' as these films both revolve around the dark side of business.
  • By using Paramount Pictures as our production company it also decrypts the genre of our trailer by using a production company which has experience and specialism in this area as the films they have produced gives the film s a reputation of specialists genres.
  • We see that the title of Paramount Pictures is the first production company shown in both teaser trailers, telling the audience that they are the most significant company in producing this film.
Warner Bros Pictures
Gangster Squad:                                                                                      Suicide Squad:







  • Warner Bros also produced films linked with our genre with the likes of 'Gangster Squad' trailer and 'Suicide Squad' which both revolve around urban crime drama thrillers and corruption.
  • We see that the editing of the titles in the trailer show that Warner Bros seems to be the most significant in the production of the film as they're company is shown first with the most running time in the trailers.
  • The genre of our trailer is signified if we used Warner Bros because films with similar genres have been produced by the company. Warner Bros also has the reputation of producing these films as they have a specialty in the genres of urban crime thrillers. It relates to audience theory through implying what the production company connotes to the viewers.
