| 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.
