How do cinemas make most of their money?
Confectionery, everybody when they go to the cinema wants popcorn, sweets and/or a drink, the cinema makes most of their money by over pricing these things. without confectionery stands cinemas would not be able to stay in business.  
On screen advertisement, studios may pay cinemas to screen trailers before the film, advertisers may also pay the cinema to screen their ads.

How do you get a film into the cinema?
cinemas who are interested in your film pay you so that they can show your film.

What does a distributor do?
The film distributor is responsible for the marketing of the film.
 
Avengers age of ultron (2015)  (High budget)     The kings speech (Low budget)

How much money was used to produce each film? (The budget)
 Avengers age of ultron- $316 million (gross) $267.4 million (net)
The kinds speech-  $15 Million

How much money was made from each of the films?
Avengers age of ultron- $1 billion
The kings speech-$414 Million

How well known are the production companies for both the high-budget and low budget film?
The production companies which produced avengers age of ultron are very well known, the logos are recognisable by most people, however the production company's for the kings speech are not very well known, the logos are not familiar.

What other films has the production company made? Were these as successful? Why/why not?
Marvel studios have also produced: Ant man, captain America, the avengers, iron man, and spider man.
The Weinstein company have also produced: the silver lining playbook,  the nanny diaries, the brothers grimme and scream 4.

What genre of films does the company usually produce? Is this important when considering who could produce your film? Why?
Thriller, crime, drama films are mainly produced by the Weinstein company , this is important to consider when considering who could produce my film because their target audience will be different to marvel studios because they produce different types of films the marvel studio mainly produces mainly Si-fi, action fantasy films .

What audiences do each of the institutions aim to appeal to? Is this reflected through their film choice, or does this vary?
Marvel studios are aimed at older children, teens and adults anyone who enjoys s-fi and
action films. their is a wide variety of people who enjoy the marvel super hero theme therefore the studio has a wide audience.
The Weinstein company target their films at older teens and adults there films seem to have mature themes and or horror elements which would not be suitable for young views.

Which institution do you feel outperforms the other and could claim to be more successful, considering your research? Explain your reasons.
I think The marvel studio outperforms the Weinstein studio because they are more well known and recognised . Their movies and logo can be recognised not only on screen but also in children's toys.
they are very well know and more recognisable than The Weinstein company. they also make a lot of money on the films they make compared to the films the Weinstein company produce.
