Plan to watch a newly released film with your parents, spouse, or friends; go to the cinema; sit on the wonderful seats; and enjoy the movie. This is what every one of us usually does, i.e., just plan, pay, and enjoy. However, behind these few hours of enjoyment lie the relentless efforts of hundreds or even thousands of filmmakers and staff. They work relentlessly for years just for the sake of the glowing and glittering screens of cinemas, which everyone can enjoy. Film-making is a lengthy, mentally and physically excruciating process that involves the simultaneous work of many different departments in synchronization to make what is called a “hit film.”

The main departments include screenwriting, cinematography, actors, pre-production, post-production, distribution, and much more!

As per the progress of movie industry across the world it is estimated that it will reach around 50 billion US dollars by 2020.

Few other biggest film industries are mentioned below:

Egyptian Media Production City

EMPC (Egyptian Media Production City) established on an infrastructure consisting of 64 studios, it has the capability to shoot both indoors and outdoors. Though not at a very good position financially right now, however, due to its golden regime in the 1950’s and 1960’s, it was once considered as biggest film industry across the world. In early times, censorship was frequently imposed as to what is believed as an obstacle to freedom of expression, but recently this has reduced, but the industry has never been able to pick itself up again after 1990’s. Hence, it keeps relying on small art films that attract a sparse amount of international audience at present.

Vast Frameworks

Vast Frameworks (IFW) is a Singapore-based organization. 90 percent of the film industry is owned by Indonesian businesspersons and the motion picture maker, Mike Wiluan. In 2010-2011, this film industry saw itself in a bit trouble because of the significant increment in value added tax connected to foreign movies. Due to this, many top films from this industry, including some Oscar-winning movies saw darkness on the bright screens of cinema. This has brought about an enormous and outstretching influence on the nation’s economy. When legal copyrights of a film are made expensive by taxes, it leads to the expansion in the sale of unlicensed DVDs. However, even with this downfall, it continues to be one of the biggest film industry due to the huge sums it earned in its golden era and now strives to improve again.

Tamil Cinema or Kollywood

Tamil Cinema refers to Indian motion pictures which produces the films in Tamil language. It is based in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Tamil Cinema is the 2nd highest grossing cinema of the south Indian film industry. It is also 3rd largest global box office gross after Bollywood.

Started in 1918 Tamil industry is now flourished globally. Tamil industry has now global audience including countries like  Sri Lanka, North America, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, parts of Africa, Middle East and Europe.

Hong Kong Cinema

Being a part of British rule till 1997, this film industry had the advantage of having a greater freedom than the mainland China. With the latest figures of 2014, this Cinema of Hong Kong made annually approx. $1.65 billion. Compared to American films, a very sleek amount is invested in the production of the films, however, there are exceptions like blockbuster movies from Jackie Chan or Stephen Chow, on which huge amounts are invested and as a result attract a large audience.

Nigerian Cinema or Nollywood

Nigeria is often not considered as a wealthy nation. However, when talking about Nollywood, if you are presuming it to be a poor film industry then you are totally wrong! Nigerian film is Africa’s biggest motion picture industry in wording esteem and the quantity of motion pictures delivered every year. Albeit Nigerian movies have been delivered subsequently to the 1960s. The ascent of moderate computerized shooting and altering innovations has fortified the nation’s film and video industry. Nigeria’s film industry is as of now positioned as biggest film industry on the planet taking into account the quantity of movies discharged every year. The film business is worth over US$3.5 billion.

Turkish Cinema (Yeşilçam)

Regarding film generation, Turkey had the same destiny with a hefty portion of the national production not being able to gain glory until around the 1950s. Since 1995 the circumstance has changed and Turkish cinema started itself lifting. After the year 2000, yearly ticket deals rose to 20 million. Since 1995, the number of theaters has relentlessly expanded to roughly 500 across the nation. Right now, Turkish movies draw in gatherings of people of a large number of viewers and routinely make the blockbuster films, regularly surpassing huge sums in the film market.

Lollywood

Basically, the name “Lollywood” originated from a nickname set by a Pakistani magazine writer. The name resembles the two major film industries, i.e. Bollywood and Hollywood. Originally Lahore was the base of Pakistan’s Lollywood but as the film business gained popularity, it moved its base in Karachi. By 2007 Karachi was made the permanent base for Pakistan’s film and showbiz industry. It casts films in Urdu, English and some films in regional languages too like Punjabi, Pushto, Sindhi, and Balochi. Pakistani film industry had a sudden breakdown in the 1980s and by the 2000s producing barely 2 films annually. Lollywood is in its revival and from 2013 to present, Lollywood has produced 23 movies competing Bollywood films in cinema.
