Book excerpt: What is a Production Company? A production company is a company that oversees the creation of a movie or music, TV commercials, documentaries, music videos or other media. They are there from start to finish during the process of making the product. The production company handles cinematography of a pic, sound effects of music and much more. Without the production company it's unacceptable to make an excellent pic or an excellent sound. They are needed by all who have plans to get their creative decisions out there and brought to life. The nice thing about these companies is that they will make sure the movie or song has some continuity with it. There are so many different separate parts to the company that it would be easy for it to all get mixed up on its own. The production company looks at the product, adds what is needed, and sends out a great piece that is put together perfectly. Getting Started As with any business it takes time, effort and diligence to start your own production company. It helps if you're focused on what you want to do and have ideas about what you want, both starting the company and long-term. Those who operate the most successful production companies are people who are go-getters, self-starters, and unafraid of failure. Office and computer skills are also necessary, and a professional attitude is needed. Having contacts in the industry is also very helpful, but you can do it on your own if you do not have these connections.
