	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Movie studio
		The first movie studio in the Hollywood area was Nestor Studios, which was opened in 1911 by Al Christie for David Horsley.
		With the end of "the Studios" and the continued incursion of television into the audience for film, more and more companies became simply management structures which put together artistic teams on a project-by-project basis, usually renting space from some of the surviving studios, which is still the norm today.
		At every studio, there are those that have the power of the purse strings, the princes and princesses of major projects that have the ability to anoint an endeavor as being 'green light' (a go-ahead for financing and execution).
