The film industry- Belstone pictures

Belstone pictures was founded by Finn Cardigan Bruce when he left sixth form collage. He worked on multiple film and tv shows teaching him what life on a set is like. He worked on sets such as Downton abbey, and x factor and then worked in LA doing lots of different things further helping him to understand and find his way in the film industry. He then

decided to make Belstone his main focus in 2016 based only in the UK where he has now created a full production and gross successfuly and has been going for 5 years.

Belstone also own a production service called FCB which includes: Bonnebouche media, pub to your door,Apollo your travel buddy, the bigger picture and many more. These all contribute to helping belstone pictures as they provide an extra sauce of income allowing higher budget for production, travel and create an impact.

Their biggest box office sucsesses include:

1. Tank 432, released in 2016 with a gross of $27,570 and a budget of £1 million.

2. Tucked , released in 2019 with a gross of $23,086 and a budget around $0.3-0.6 million.

Does Belstone work with the same actors and directors?

They have worked with different un-known actors such as Rupert Evans and Jordan Stephens and producers such as Fin Bruce and Jennifer Handorf this is because it is less expensive so more money can be spent on the production its self. However this can benefit the actors and producers as it could be their breakthrough film meaning they get seen helping them to get further up in the industry.

Belstone have also teamed up with multiple production companies as it reduces risk of going bankrupt but also limits quick growth as gross has to be split.

They currently have 9 films in pre-production including:

• Broken Cove 
• Room 17 
• Cats in hell 
• Open heart 
• The dealer

They have 3 films in production including:

• Tracks 
• Hollow 
• Sanctury of collell

They have 2 films in post-production including:

• Paul Doods deadly lunch break 
• Improve your life now!

Being a small institution is an advantage as it means they have more creative freedom meaning worldwide issues can be made aware through the film to the audience and create an impact which is exactly what Belstone's aim is. More risks can also be taken to an extent as not much money has to be spent on it but could become popular leading to higher gross.
