A24: the producer of emerging talent that triumphs in Hollywood

Sony Pictures, Disney, Paramount and 20th Century Fox are surely the best-known film studios, production companies and labels within the seventh art. But for some years now, the independent film production company A24 has made its way into cinemas around the world through a unique film proposal. The exponential growth of the production company founded in 2012 by Daniel Katz, David Fenkel and John Hodges has meant that the appearance of their logo at the beginning of a film is a seal of quality for the entire film community. only type of style of film to produce, but they expand their market with very different proposals. Without the intention of confusing, it is not that the works signed by A24 are the same, but nevertheless it is true that they give off a certain author’s invoice. One where the directors are the ones who have absolute control of their films. Without trying to burst the box office, the New York production company prefers to screen unique proposals that achieve the recognition offered by festivals and international award lists. A promoter of auteur cinema and emerging talent, A24 is always committed to directors who flee from aesthetic formalisms and typical industry proposals. That is why he has worked with established directors such as Yorgos Lanthimos, Noah Baumbach, Sofía Coppola, Claire Denis, Sean Baker and Denis Villeneuve. Without ever neglecting emerging talents such as the Safdie brothers, Robert Eggers and Ari Aster, exponential growth began prematurely with films such as Ex machina and The Bling Ring and only a few years later would reach excellence with the Oscar of Moonlight and Eggers’ debut feature The Witch.He currently has a presence at this year’s Oscars with Minari and in the immediate future, it does not seem that he will abandon the path thanks to the productions that are pending release. But how can a production company in such a short time of life have transmitted that seal of quality? The main reason seems to be the commitment to quality rather than quantity. Unlike other studios (much larger economically speaking) with an interest in releasing productions that can perform well at the box office.
