Christian Film Industry

The Christian film industry is a not a studio system like Hollywood. It is comprised of independent film producers. Because the demand for Christian content is so high, Christian distributors often will distribute inferior products. Any project of the quality, magnitude, budget, and nature of The Prodigal Son puts it into a category that few films ever reach.

Distribution through the many Christian outlets and into the huge Christian marketplace will be very easy with the huge demand for quality Christian films. There is no better time than now to produce a quality film from a Christian world view.

The U.S. has the largest number of Christians than any other country in the world. The following is a chart of the top 11 countries of Christianity.

Additionally, with success of previous efforts, the industry is realizing that the Christian market has been underserved. What is special about The Prodigal Son is that it crosses over to the huge market of the young secular audience. It also has great potential of breaking into the market of Christian video games, internet downloads, musical sound tracks, radio avenues, IPOD shorts, cellular downloads, and much more.
