Red Envelope Entertainment

Red Envelope Entertainment (originally Netflix First) was a film production unit created by Netflix in 2006.[2] The studio produced independent content for the company's DVD-by-mail service.[3] The company produced and/or distributed over 100 films, before ultimately being closed in 2008.[4] The firm cited the closure of the production division, as a result of pressure from partnered film studios, which were competing for rights.
