SWOT MEDIA

AVM
one of the earliest productions of Tamil cinema nearly to generations. The company emblem and the distinct music becoming inseparable elements of Tamil cinema. They have always delivered at the highest level and reaching to all sections of the audience. No stars without entering into the AVM productions. They too changing with us by our generational interests.

Aascar Films

This productions does films of all kinds and sizes, from the limited budgets to the highly ones. Starting at purely in distribution, then graduated to production and became synonymous with quality. The production house is also known for adopting low budget ventures which are in trouble and getting them into theatres.

V Creations

Victory, their aim for giving hits over the years. It has been a fulfilling journey in the production industry. V Creations has always given high class entertainers. This is one among the banners that does not shy away from putting their money behind projects that they believe in, even though a bit unconventional.

Ayangaran International

This is new in Tamil cinema, but he reached to all directors and actors in 2 years with their talented productions. In the couple of years they have already produced some big projects. Budgets doesn’t matter to this firm, only the end product.

Sun Pictures

A new entrant, dint leave this field too having the most well established network among Tamils around the world, it was only a matter why this media giant took this step. But, they made a ‘BIG BANG’ entry with their first home production, the prestigious and huge Endhiran. Having loads of productions in future.

Sivaji Films

Sivaji Films, the name is enough to give respect in all Tamil cinema circles. Sivaji Films has always reaches well and the firm has been around for enough years now to know all the equations of the trade. In recent years, though they have cut down on the number of films, their success rate has sure increased with the blockbuster films.

The word Duet itself make us all to look over it. It’s the Prakash Raj’s love in cinema and his eagerness to make such movies that tells us about his passion for the medium. Offbeat is no the word to say about the production duet might not be the right words to describe films from Duet. Every time a Duet film releases, it’s so special. Good job by the productions.

S Pictures

S Picutres is highly budgeted productions.Runing by director Shankar, known for his big budget commercial potboilers, the production house is in complete contrast to his directorial preferences. Cinema from S Pictures promises substance and variety in equal measure, be it Kadhal, Veyil or Imsai Arasan. Waiting to take some more films.

Kavithalaya

The legendary KB’s production house not just their consistency in delivering good mass cinema that makes them a big name, it is also the volume that they handle. The zeal for making a number of movies is a defining characteristic of this production house.
The production houses- they are the power houses in any film industry. Producers are not just providers of finance but they are also equal participants in the process of making good cinema. That is why many names have stood unchanged in cinema for long, giving hit after hit.

Raj Kamal films

Not a production for more films. This mainly into an action only for Kamal Hassan’s pet projects, not necessarily only those that have him in the lead. If Kamal dogood and have interest in a project it will definitely be worth a watch and so quality has never been an issue with Raj Kamal.

Horror Comedy is not a new genre by any means because only after Kanchana, people started adoring films of such kind.Thrills and entertainment are rest assured along with a flashback in films like Kanchana 1 but how entertaining is it, is all that matters. The CGI effect is quiet thriller.

Yaamirukka bayamey
Director: Deekay’s
Year: 2014

Yaamirukka Bayamey is an interesting film that combines well-known stylistic elements of the horror and a gory looking ghost and so on with an adult humour. It is a surprisingly well-made ‘horror-comedy’ that succeeds in continuously exploiting our irrational fear of the unknown even while nudging us to laugh at it. Thus, we have sound to manipulate emotion, visual imagery to create scary atmospherics, and scene cuts that escalate the tension to the maximum before the final moment. All in all, this is a fun summer film and should work regardless of whether one believes in the supernatural or not. Whether the ghost haunting Kiran’s ancestral property or is it a conman’s master moves?

Muni
Director: Raghava Lawrence
Year: 2011

Muni is entertaining in parts with comedy, songs, glamour and stunts.

Shock
Director: Thiagarajan
Year: 2004

Shock is a rather unique horror flick, especially to Tamil cinema. It avoids special effects, violence or gore, instead relying on atmosphere and anticipation to give us the chills. The flip side of the above technique is that the movie is slow-paced. While there are enough shocks scattered around to avoid the feeling that the movie is dragging, the overuse of sequences that increase our anticipation before ending in an anti-climactic manner leads to an impression of watching a very slow movie.
