Ever since film producer Robert Simonds came up with the notion of launching his very own studio, the industry has been discussing what could this mean for the rest of the industry. An acclaimed producer in his own right, Robert Simonds has been involved with numerous successful projects in the past. This has earned him quite a reputation for being a talented producer with a penchant of recognizing projects that have a strong potential for being successful at the box office. Therefore when he came up with the idea of launching his own studio, people within the industry immediately understood that it can only bring positive outcome for the sphere of filmmaking in general.

Known as STX Entertainment, Robert Simonds brainchild has everything that it takes to become the next best thing in Hollywood. The underlying reason for which Robert Simonds envisioned the concept of his studio was to change the current trend of filmmaking that relies too much on making big budget blockbusters. Over the past few years, Hollywood has made too many big budget films, the bulk of which belongs to the superhero movie genre. While these movies have been able to bring in their share of profits for the studios that are associated with them, they still left a creative hole in the industry which could have been filled by mid budget movies that cast some of the best actors in the industry.

The thing about big budget movies like the ones that are made by Marvel Cinematic Universe is that they do have a lot of CGI effects and other attractions that inevitably make them major hits. However, not always, but in many cases they rely too much on the glitz and eventually lack the story material or the soul that can eventually make a movie memorable for a long time. On the other hand, mid budget movies focus more on gripping storylines and brilliant acting to attract their audience which in turn leads to a great content. Such benefits that are associated with these mid budget movies are also able to attract viewers from other parts of the world as well. In this digital age, movies do not simply focus on appealing to the domestic audience but also the international audience as well since they contribute majorly to the revenues earned by a studio.

It is due to factors such as these that have inevitably led Robert Simonds to conclude that focusing on making medium budget movies would be the best business strategy so far for his studio STX Entertainment. Robert Simonds also has the support of his investors in such business strategies as they strongly believe that it can help them to enjoy substantial profits over the years. From the very beginning, Robert Simonds has always focused on bringing in great value for his investors. Therefore his investors has the confidence on him that he can offer them the same value this time with the new projects that they are going to develop under STX Entertainment.
