Walt Disney Pictures is an American film production company, owned by The Walt Disney Company. Founded in 1950 as Walt Disney Productions, the division is based at the Walt Disney Studios and is the main producer of live-action feature films. It took on its current name in 1983. Walt Disney Pictures is classified as one of Hollywood's "Big Six" film studios. Their first film was in 1928with Mickey Mouse in steam boat Willie. List of famous films:

Paranormal Activity: $15,000Pirates of the Caribbean:$300 million

Paranormal activity: $193,355,800The film made- $ 193,340,800

Pirates of the Caribbean: $963,420,425The film made- $960,420,425

Blumhouse Productions- This company isn’t well known because, I have asked a lot of people all ages and the haven’t heard of them. This suggests that they do not produce all different kinds of movies, for example they haven’t produced any comedies that is well known or has been in the cinema. They many produce horror films and only a certain types of people will go to see them. It’s not for everyone.

Walt Disney Pictures- This company is another house hold name because it has been around for so long that every generation will have seen a movie by them. The only problem with this that they mainly make children’s, but people say “your never to old for a Disney movie” which suggest that the films that they make are just so entertaining that everyone can watch them. Also everyone has grown up with these movie’s which suggest that the movies could mean more to them because it reminds them of their child hood. This is what makes the company so well known.

The obvious difference is the budget it’s self. By having a bigger budget, this means that the money will be spent on well known/ award winning/ professional team for a movie. For example from Pirates of the Caribbean the actors in the film are well know eg. Johnny Depp and Kira Knightley. To have actors like this you have to pay a lot of money to get them to do it. Also the production and quality will be better because they can have better equipment. While the Low budget they aren’t as well known. For example I don’t the audience knows who katie featherston is. But in terms of institutions normally if a film is a low budget the audience wouldn’t have heard of the them, because they aren’t as big as the others. Also the film wouldn’t of gone into the cinema for example Another Earth, nobody that I have asked has seen or heard of this film and the budget of the movie was $150,000. However Paranormal activity is an unusual one only because the institution that produced the film, made the film popular.

Normally a High budget film will put their film into the cinema’s because they can pay for it while the Low budget can’t afford it because they don’t have enough money.

Both of the institutions that I have chosen both make a lot of money.Both institutions realise films regularly.Both make entertaining movies Both suit their audiences

Paramount Pictures:Paranormal ActivityParanormal Activity 2Tooth FairyParanormal Activity 3Paranormal Activity 4SinisterDark SkiesThe PurgeArea 51Insidious: Chapter 2Some of these films were very successful for example Paranormal Activity was popular because it was one of the first films that were like that, which attracted audiences from teenagers and up. Also by it being distributed by Paramount Pictures made it popular because they produce entertaining films that everyone likes.

Walt Disney Pictures:Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

BambiCinderella

Cool Running'sToy Story

Narnia seriesTangled

Holes WALL-E

These films were all very successful as well because of the same reasons as Paramount Pictures, but also because I think that they

have aimed at their target audience really well. Also because each generation have seen these

that they make the next generation watch it because it’s so good then they all fall in love

with the movie again.

Blumhouse Production produces mainly horror films. For example Sinister which is a horror and Insidious which is also a horror.Walt Disney Pictures is mainly children’s movies. For example Toy story which is children’s and a animation, Cinderella which is also a children’s and an animation, and Holes which is a children’s movie.

Finding out what genre institutions produce is important when considering who you would like to produce your movie because if you are making a children’s film then the institution which would be suitable for you would be Walt Disney Pictures, because that’s what normally what movie they like to produce. However you wouldn’t go to Blumhouse productions because all the films that they make are scary films, so your children’s film wouldn’t do very well because you picked the wrong institution.

Blumhouse Production audience is mainly for people that like watching horrors, but also the teenage population like the watch these kind of films because it gives them a sense of safe danger. This is reflected through their film choice because they pick one type of film which are the same genres and the same audience guide.

Walt Disney Pictures audience that they appeal to is children because of the movies they make. For example they may make film with different genres but most of them will be a PG so their target audience can watch it. The films that they produce do not have any strong language so children can watch it. They don’t have much gore in their films so children can watch it. This is defiantly reflected through their film choice because most of them are animation and the same audience guide.

Overall I think that Walt Disney Pictures is better because it has been going for longer, which shows dedication and a lot of work to keep it going for that period of time. It makes movies for everyone, which means they produce movies that everyone can watch. They have created films that everyone will know and enjoy which shows that their films are just that good. This shows that they are a lot more versatile because they can do more than one things.
