Editor's Notes
- The Warners went on to quickly produce the first โall-talkingโ movie and their first โtalkingโ gangster film,ย The Lights of New York. By late 1928, the rush for sound was on, with the Warners well out in front.
- Casablancaย (the Studioโs second Best Picture Oscar)The 1950s broughtย A Streetcar Named Desire,ย House of Waxย (in 3D),ย A Star Is Born,ย The High and the Mighty,ย Dial โMโ for Murder,ย Mister Roberts,ย Hondo,ย Moby Dick,ย The Bad Seed,ย The Searchers,ย Sayonara,ย Marjorie Morningstar,ย Auntie Mame,ย The Nun's Storyย and the three films which made James Dean a legend:East of Eden,ย Rebel Without a Causeย andย Giant.
- In those early pioneering days, comedy was the king of the small screen, but Warner Bros. Television targeted a different genre, the dramatic seriesโand carved out an important new and very successful niche.ย Cheyenneย was only the first of the many hits to come in the โ50s. Also launched that decade were the now-classic seriesMaverick,ย 77 Sunset Strip,ย Colt .45ย andย Hawaiian Eye. In July of 1958, Harry Warner died peacefully at home.During the 1960s, Warner Bros. Pictures released such notable films asย Oceanโs Eleven,ย Splendor in the Grass,ย Gypsy,ย The Music Man,ย My Fair Ladyย (the Studioโs third Best Picture Oscar),ย The Great Race,ย Whoโs Afraid of Virginia Woolf?,ย What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?,ย Bonnie and Clyde,ย Camelot,ย Cool Hand Lukeย andThe Wild Bunch. On the television side, Warner Bros. Television debuted such hits asย F Troopย andย The FBI. In 1967, an aging Jack Warner sold the Studio to Elliot and Ken Hyman, and it was renamed Warner Bros.-Seven Arts.Seven Artsโ association with the Studio was short-lived. In November 1969, Steve Ross and his Kinney Corporation purchased the company, and it became Warner Communications, Inc.
- thanks to the beginning of the Harry Potter phenomenon (Harry Potter and the Sorcererโs Stone),ย Oceanโs 11,ย A.I. Artificial Intelligence,ย Cats & Dogsย and, internationally,ย Miss Congeniality.2004 was a history-making year for the Studio. Warner Bros. Pictures had its most successful year ever, with $3.41 billion in worldwide box office, which included $2.19 billion in overseas receipts, marking the first time a studio crossed the $2 billion mark internationally in a single year (it was also the fifth time domestically and seventh time internationally Warner Bros. Pictures broke the billion-dollar barrier). Contributing to this success wereย Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban,ย Troy,ย Oceanโs 12ย andย The Polar Express. WBTV was again the industryโs leading supplier of programming to the six networks, and Warner Home Video finished the year as the industryโs marketshare leader (for the sixth time in the preceding eight years).In 2012, the Warner Bros. Pictures Group grossed $4.3 billion at the worldwide box office ($1.66 billion domestic, $2.67 international) with both its domestic and international divisions crossing the billion-dollar mark for a 12th consecutive year, a feat unmatched by any other studio. The Pictures Group has exceeded $4 billion globally for four consecutive years, also a milestone no other studio has ever achieved. Despite challenging market conditions, Warner Home Video was, once again, the industryโs leader, with an overall 21 percent marketshare in total DVD and Blu-ray sales

- Because the ultimate success of a multi-million dollar feature-length film often hinges on the quality of its marketing campaign, the process of research, determining a creative approach, finishing, and servicing should not be taken lightly. Especially when the average studio movie marketing budget costs around $31 million. And in no other piece of the marketing puzzle is this truism more strongly reflected than in the movieโstrailer, which serves as not only the flagship piece of the marketing campaign but the determining factor of style and tone for the remainder of the creative process.From aย Time Mazagineย article entitled โHollywoodโs promo reels are bigger, flashier and costlier than ever, but can you trust them?โ the author writes:
- Because the process of trailer creation and production takes into consideration the many viewpoints of the stakeholders involved from filmmakers, directors, producers, star talent, and agents, to creative agencies, studio executives and even sponsors,ย the final piece is more than just a marketing tool but rather a true testament to the creative forces inherent within the filmmaking process.trailer recognizes the breadth of a feature movieโs complex relationships and interdepencies and capitalizes on these nuances to bridge together a look and feel that encapsulates the scope of the creative piece.Some of the traditional marketing tactics include screening trailers in theaters, running televisionย and radio spots, advertising in print via movie posters, billboards, newspapers, and magazines, and building a web presence through dedicated movie web sites, Facebook fan pages, etc. Some of the more recent marketingย tactics have run the gamut from worldwide scavenger hunts,ย flash-mobbing and viral videos toย alternate-reality games and iPhone apps.
- According to Sue Kroll, theย worldwide director of marketing at Warner Bros., while trailers, TV commercials, and publicity are hugely important, social media provides an increasingly important forum for movie fans to share information, which allows for targetedย messaging. For example, to amplify talk about the original โHangover,โย Krollโs team created a Facebook app that enabled fans to upload photos that put themselves in the movie. One month after the opening, the page had 1 .8 million fans. By the time โHangover 2โณ rolled around, the pageย had over 12 million fans.ย Because of this, the team was able to utilize the page as a platform for debuting material and as such, it became an integral piece of their marketing campaign.Becauseย the delivery of a single messageย has become more complex over time due to the fragmentation of audiences, it is important to have anย Integrated Marketing Campaignย to tie everything together with one look and one voice across a variety of channels.ย ย The ability for aย marketer to efficiently create a mulfi-facted campaign that not just entertains but engages will have a direct impact onย bottom line results.
- Direct-to-consumer for Warner Bros. started in 2009 with the intention of having consumers connect with the studio in a personal way, Edelman said. That endeavor has since resulted in a 14 million consumers worldwide in the studioโs database, a consumer loyalty program and the launch of several online endeavors: WBShop.com; Warner Archive, the studioโs manufacturing on demand business; Warner Archive Instant; and WBUltra.com, the studioโs Flixster- and UltraViolet-connected digital entertainment store.
