Research Into a Small Institution

 Belstone!

Belstone Pictures was founded in 2012, an independent British film company. The headquarters is located in Chelsea, UK. The company is owned by Finn Cardigan Bruce. They do not own any other studios. Belstone has been running for 9 years now. 


Belstone's biggest successes consist of the following, Paul Dood's Dead Lunch Break in 2021. Swede Caroline, post-production and Tucked in 2018. Belstone spent £100,000 on Tucked with national distribution due to horizontal integration done by 'Shudder' and it was a success to the extent of a small independently led film company. 

Belstone don't tend to work with the same actors, however after some research I found that an actress that features in a lot of Bruce's film is actress April Pearson, best known for her portrayal of Michelle on 'Skins'. Belstone does work with the same directors. Having conducted research, Belstone do not appear to have anything in pre-production, production or post-production. 

The advantages of a small institution would be an intricate bond with crew and staff working on set, as they spend an increased amount of time together.
