View of the Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank. A film studio (also known as movie studio or simply studio) is a major entertainment company that makes films. Today, studios are mostly financing and distribution entities. In addition, they may have their own studio facility or facilities; however, most firms in the entertainment industry have never had their own studios, but have rented space from other companies instead. Day-to-day filming operations are generally handled by a production company subsidiary.
Another type of company is an independently owned studio facility, which does not produce motion pictures by itself; such facilities only sell studio space.
