The Inbetweeners

This is my Prezi: explaining aspects of Production, Marketing, Distribution and Exhibition about 'The Inbetweeners Movie.'

Mainstream Cinema

Vue has won many accolades over the years, including winning Best Cinema of the Year UK and in 2005 Vue also won prestigious award for International Exhibitor of the Year at Cinema Expo.


ODEON:


Perry Bar in Birmingham saw the first ODEON cinema open in 1930, owned by Terra Firm. ODEON operate London’s BFI IMAX which is the largest cinema screen in the UK. ODEON have the UK’s biggest cinema loyalty scheme - ODEON Première Club - with over 2 million members.

ODEON Leicester Square has hosted over 700 of Europe’s biggest film premieres since the 1930s.

ODEON have over 100 cinemas and over 850 screens, and opened the first modern multiplex in the UK in Milton Keynes.

ISENSE screens: floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall with canvas for state-of-the-art 4K digital projectors. Four times the resolution of standard projectors, they deliver almost nine million pixels for an even brighter, clearer and more detailed picture.

‘The Lounge’ - one of their London cinemas, has no more than 50 seats, double the normal leg room. Waiters to serve food and drink as soon as you press the button on the armrest. “A night at the movies with a luxurious twist.”

Working Title and Universal

Working Title is a London based film production company.
Producing feature films and several television productions.
Founded in 1983 by Tim Bevan and Sarah Radclyffe.
Eric Fellner and Tim Bevan are now the co-chairs of the company.

In 1992, PolyGram became the Working Title's corporate backer.
Working Title produced films for PolyGram's London-based production company; PolyGram Filmed Entertainment / PolyGram Films.

In 1999, PolyGram was sold to Seagram, which merged with MCA Music Entertainment, forming Universal Music Group.
In the same year, PolyGram Films was sold into Universal Studios.

Although Working Title are able to contractually produce $35 million budget films, Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner have to consult with studio executives at NBCUniversal, Working Title's 'parent company.'

The existing deal that Working Title has with Universal was meant to be an exclusive arrangement, due to expire in 2013.
However, they've now extended their production agreement through 2015.

Working Title is still located in London.
But the company now has other offices in Ireland and Los Angeles.
