Production Company That I Chose - Lions Gate
 
 
 
 
History
 
The history behind Lions Gate Entertainment is that it is an American-Canadian company that was founded in 1997 in Vancouver, Canada. It is currently headquartered in Santa Monica, California in the USA. it is overall the most commercially successful mini major movie production company and as of 2013 is the seventh most profitable movie studio in the world. Since its founding in 1997, the company had produced over 200 feature length films and had gained over 5 billion dollars in profits.
 
 
Notable Films Produced
 
Lions Gate Entertainment has produced several notable films, among them are:
 
1. The Hunger Games

Why Are They A Suitable Company For Me To Chose?
 
Lions Gate Entertainment are a suitable company for me to produce our thriller film due to many of its films being thriller and have a dark theme, such as Saw and the Hostel franchises. Alongside dark and satanic themes, they have also produced many films that have deep plots, such as Abduction and Safe. They overall also have a good reputation and a stable way of working so they are also worthwhile selecting due to them having more wealth and subsequently a bigger budget for us to work on if we did chose them. Finally, the films mentioned above have similar themes and our ideas are inspired by them, which is ultimately why I chose Lions Gate to be the suitable company for producing our thriller opening.
