Warner Brothers( as i said previously) are one of the oldest running film companies. Harry , Sam, Jack, Albert Warner started producing films in World War 1 and in 1918 they opened Warner Bros, in the a studio on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood. Sam and Jack Warner produced the pictures, while Harry and Albert Warner were in control of fiance and distribution.
The first important deal for the company was the acquisition of the rights to Avery Hopwood's 1919 Broadway play.
"Warner Bros turned more realistic and gritty story lines, and was said to glorify gangsters and became the "gangster studio".
Warner's cartoon unit had its roots in the independent Harman and Ising studio. From 1930 to 1933, Disney alumni Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising produced a series of musical cartoons for Leon Schlesinger, who sold the shorts to Warner. Harman and Ising introduced their character Bosko in the first Looney Tunes cartoon, Sinkin' in the Bathtub, and created a sister series, Merrie Melodies, in 1931.[103]"
