Record Company

Columbia Records is a premier recording label, under the ownership of Sony Music Entertainment, operating under the Columbia Music Group. It was founded in 1888, evolving from an earlier enterprise, the American Graphophone Company—successor to the Volta Graphophone Company. Columbia is the oldest brand name in pre-recorded sound, being the first record company to produce pre-recorded records as opposed to blank cylinders. Columbia Records went on to release records by an array of notable singers, instrumentalists, and bands. From 1961 to 1990, its recordings were released outside the U.S. and Canada on the CBS Records label (for Columbia Broadcasting System, its parent from 1938 to 1988) before adopting the Columbia name in most of the world.
It is one of Sony Music's three flagship record labels with the others being Epic Records and RCA Records.
Until 1989, Columbia Records had no connection to Columbia Pictures, which used various other names for record labels they owned, including Colpix and later Arista; rather, it was connected to CBS, which stood for Columbia Broadcasting System, a broadcasting media company which purchased Columbia Records in the late 1930s, and which had been co-founded in 1927 by Columbia Records itself. Though Arista was sold to BMG, it would later become a sister label to Columbia Records through Sony Music; both are connected to Columbia Pictures through Sony Corporation of America, worldwide parent of both the music and motion picture arms of Sony.

  1. This excellent detailed and through blogging. You have posted your animatic well and provided a full and creative evaluation of the process. I particularly enjoyed the reflection on the need to visualise your final product and this has been demonstrated through graphic design and technical coding’s. I hope you understand how both the storyboard and the animatic can help you organise your shoot day. You have also blogged reflection on the set and have revised your prop list carefully ad this demonstrates meticulous planning on your behalf and recognition of the need to logistically plan your shoot. After half term you will be getting ready for the shoot – so please make sure you are! The blogging of your research into the CD covers and websites is excellent – you have chosen a good range of images for your inspiration and have attempted to state what they share in common and what influences you take from them. You could develop the use of hyperlinks to creatively demonstrate band websites, which you have fully evaluated. I think that you could also at this stage consider dates fro screen testing and rehersal's?
