Institution



An institution is an organisation, establishment, foundation or society devoted to the promotion of a particular cause or program. It is a worldwide business.

An example of this is:

"Disney Institute is the professional development arm of The Walt Disney Company. Built on the global success of Disney, our solutions engage organizations in time-tested best practices, sound methodologies, and real life business lessons that facilitate corporate culture change."
-taken from the disney website.

Walt Disney is an institution because the company itself owns many other companies, however most of us aren't aware of this. The reason for owning other companies is to cover all aspects of the media industry.

A few of the companies Walt Disney owns is: 
- Touchstone pictures
- Miramax films 
- Hollywood records
- ESPN
- Abc
- Good morning america

Examples of films produced by disney (also touchstone pictures and miramax films):
- The last song
- Pirates of the caribbean 
- Need for speed
- Step up 
- Ella enchanted
- Cinderella

  1. This is a fine start Emily but there needs to be much more detail. Remember, you are working at A Level now and the work should reflect this.
