Unit 1 (Script): Market Position (4)

20th Century Fox are a very successful company. We can see this from the list of awards that they have won; including the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture for 'Walk the Line' and the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Drama for 'Alvin and the Chipmunks'.
They acquire Big Name stars for their movies like Colin Firth, Samuel L. Jackson, Cate Blanchett, Keanu Reeves and Morgan Freeman (Music Stops) (Insert MF Quote), (Music Starts). 20th Century Fox produce a variety of films of a variety of genres for a variety of audiences. They produce films for kids like the Ice Age and How to Train Your Dragon sagas, films like The Fault in our Stars for teenagers, horror films like Poltergeist for fans that like to be (Music Stops) scared by moving pictures (Music Starts) and more family orientated films like The Three Stooges. 20th Century Fox operate very similarly to the other major film production companies. All they need is an idea to spark their imagination, then they get to work by commissioning people to write the script, they cast for actors/actresses, film and produce the film, edit and add final touches (add animation if the film is an animation film), build up excitement by producing trailers and posters, think about other sub-products like merchandise, comics and games, then release the film (Kerching!! $$ Sound Effect)! 20th Century Fox are successful around the globe. They have built themselves up as one of the most well-known production companies in the world and continue to produce content for audiences of all ages and show no sign of stopping.
