| What
is a production company?
When
asked, "What exactly is a production
company? Brett Cullen* answered,
"A production company is simply a
company that options or buys scripts or
books or stories and tries to produce
them...either by finding the financing
ourselves and producing the movie independently
or going to a studio and producing the
movie through them."
Wikipedia.org says a "production
company refers to a company responsible
for the development and physical production
of a film or television program. The production
company may be a small company who sells
its film to a film studio, or it may be
the studio itself."
If you were to ask Beth Fortman-Brand,
Executive Producer and President of Power
of Love Productions and author of Power
of Love: Living from Our Hearts, the same
question, "What is a production company?"
she is likely to respond, "Yes, Brett
is correct and I'd like to expand on his
answer a bit by saying that Power of Love
Productions is a production company that
feels great responsibility about the types
of projects we choose to produce. That
is why Power of Love Productions operates
with clear intentions. As a production
company our intentions are always to produce
projects that not only have entertainment
value but are also inspirational and educational."
So, again, "what is a production
company?" A company that produces
for the general public. Currently, Power
of Love Productions is producing several
projects:
1.
A feature length film, "Love
Happens" which is a profound,
true love story that teaches the power
of love and the miracles that occur
when everyone takes responsibility
for themselves based on the book,
Power of Love: Living
from Our Hearts.
2. Books currently featured are Power
of Love: Living from Our Hearts by
Beth Fortman-Brand and Will the
Real You Please Stand Up? Guide to
a Journey of a Lifetime by Maia
Berens.
3. Educational broadband projects.
4. Internet web projects with the
"All American Transformational
Dream Team".

So
if you are asking the question, "What
is a production company?" and expect
an everyday answer, expect again if you
ask Beth, and her husband, Doug Brand,
or their other partners in Power of Love
Productions, Alejandra Duque, Maia Berens
and Bart Berens.
