  • Sony Pictures Entertainment Statement Study of The
    SONY PICTURES ENTERTAINMENT STATEMENT STUDY OF THE CURRENT STATE OF AMERICAN TELEVISION AND VIDEO PRESERVATION Sony Pictures Entertainment, through our Columbia and TriStar Television division, is one of the largest producers of television programming in the world. In 1948, Columbia Pictures established Screen Gems, one of the first companies to produce and distribute commercials and programming specifically for television. Since entering into original production for network television in 1952, SPE's library has grown to more than 3,000 titles, comprised of almost 15,000 individual prime-time television productions. These productions include 112-hour comedies, I-hour dramas, mini-series and movies-of-the-week. We have also produced day-time dramas and game shows numbering over 20,000 individual programs. For the 1995-96 television season, we will be producing an additional 1,400 individual programs for network and syndication. The SPE division responsible for maintaining the primary film and tape assets for these programs is called Worldwide Product Fulfillment. We store these assets at our main Film and Tape Operations facility in New York. For protection and security, we have separate elements in storage at locations in California, Kansas and Pennsylvania. The maintenance and preservation of SPE's television programming is of primary importance to the company. With the emergence of pay-cable, home video and the demand for programming in international territories, including our new Sony Entertainment Television networks in Latin America and India, the ability to service clients is dependent not only on the quality of the product, but also on the care and handling of the assets used to create the product.
