History
World Wide Motion Pictures Corporation and subsidiaries was founded on the belief that the independent film community needed production and distribution partners willing to move at the pace of the work itself, rather than forcing every title into a standardized release model which may not serve the film's best artistic or commercial interest.
Early Years
The company began by packaging, producing, and co-producing feature-length films in the 1980s and 90s, while also acquiring completed titles for release from regional and international film festivals. These films often received strong critical recognition but lacked a clear commercial pathway to audiences. Management has continued to focus on building relationships with major theatrical circuits, regional exhibitors, and a wide variety of emerging digital platforms to create meaningful opportunities for commercial outlets for independent filmmakers and their work.
Growth
As film production and distribution philosophy and techniques evolved alongside the rapid growth of digital platforms, the company expanded its relationships with theatrical exhibitors, digital outlets, and social media platforms. It also established a dedicated acquisitions function, enabling the company to evaluate a broader volume of submissions while maintaining a curated and selective slate of titles aligned with maximizing potential gross corridors.
Today
Today, the company continues to operate as an independent distributor, working directly with filmmakers, producers, and producers' representatives in order to bring high-quality finished work to the widest possible audiences and markets. Its distribution activities span theatrical, streaming, educational institutions, airlines, cruise lines, library systems, government agencies, and broadcast channels, both domestically and internationally. Through this approach, World Wide Motion Pictures Corporation continues to identify distinctive films and create distribution pathways that connect them with audiences and markets most likely to align with the company's mission and objectives.
