Where does the money come from in film production?

In the production of the film there is a few ways that the company can make money.

The first way is by private funding. This is when a person or another company takes an interest in the film idea and gives the production compant money to make their film.

Another way the film can get money is from the money made by the production company on previous films they have produced. This means that their new film is completely funded by themselves and they get to keep all profits. This is called corperate funding.
