Motion Pictures Corporation is a Phoenixian-based film production and distribution company and a subsidiary of Ars Global group. It has its origins in 1914, when it was founded as a distribution house by Butrus Urfs. However, the company's proper foundation can be traced back to 12 June 1915, when Surge Film Company was founded by Engin Kubat.

In accordance with Urfs's original plans, Kubat's company later merged with Surge-Hoork Corporation, eventually leading to the company taking on the name of Motion Pictures. Through these and other mergers, Motion Pictures became one of the "Big Four" major film companies in Phoenixia, alongside Viper Studios, Evoloro Animation, and Bune Entertainment.

Motion Pictures gained fame in 1954 with the release of the film "Valor Wings", based on the novel of the same name by Matthew Fox.

Despite its origins in the early days of cinema, Motion Pictures has managed to survive and thrive as a major player in the film industry. As one of the few remaining studios from the silent era, it has consistently demonstrated its resilience and adaptability in an ever-changing industry. Today, Motion Pictures continues to be a significant presence in the film industry.
