Custom Studio Name Overview
-
A 'Studio Name' refers to the name of the production company that produced a movie or TV show, and is found on the titles listing page.
- This field is mandatory and typically defaults to the name of the distribution company.
- The latest addition to our slate of services gives you the option to credit your production company name as the 'Studio Name' on certain Channels.
- When this feature is enabled, the 'Production Company' input into the field on the Filmhub Listing tab will be used as the studio name
- This means that your studio name will be visible to audiences and associated with your releases, instead of 'Filmhub'.
- This opportunity allows you to further establish your brand presence and recognition by having your name listed as the Studio for your movies and shows.
Where Does the Studio Name Appear
