Film studio
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"Well I was making films the way someone else would write a poem and these were personal artistic statements and so unless I found a some kind of patron I could hardly expect you know for studios to back this kind of film and I never did."--Kenneth Anger in Kenneth Anger's Hollywood Babylon (1991) |

A film studio (also known as movie studio or simply studio) is a major entertainment company or motion picture company that has its own privately owned studio facility or facilities that are used to make films, which is handled by the production company. Most firms in the entertainment industry have never owned their own studios, but have rented space from other companies.
