Working Title and Warp Films
Institution and Audiences

1. Working title films is a production company based in England. Warp Films is sister company of Warp Record and is based in Sheffield. Warp Films is an independent company, Working Title is part of universal (conglomerate).

2.Warp Films would have less of a budget because they are completely on their own, but Working Title would have more of a budget because they have help from universal.

3.Warp Films have produced films such as: This is England, Rubber Jonny and Dead Man’s Shoes. Working Title have produced films such as: The Boat That Rocked, About a Boy, Four Weddings and a Funeral and Drop Dead Fred.

4. Warp Films are no way near as famous as Working Title the film This is England will be much less known than say Four Weddings and a Funeral, also Warp Films will not have world famous actors however Working Title will.

5. The film Chicago had a budget of £306,403,013.

6. Working Title get there funding from universal, Warp Films get it from NESTA.

7. They can’t afford to do big action styled films because they don’t have the budget so they have to stick to more realistic dramas.

8. The main appeal is that all films are social realism and the audience can relate more to the style of films they make. For example This is England is set in the 1980’s and people can relate to their life growing up and the problems they faced are realistic situations.

9.Working Title has a big target audience and tries to get people of all ages and genders to watch their films. Warp Films have a smaller target audience and is more limited to one group.

10. They mainly make big Hollywood films that well known actors star in.
