What kind of media institution would distribute your media product and why?

The main production/distribution companies are normally worldwide corporations and usually do large budget films with a lot of A-list stars, so being realistic they won’t distribute our film. The type of film Distribution Company we are looking for is a company who produces and distributes low budget British films.

A Film Production company like Working Title would be a great path for our film as they produce British films and they are distributed by Universal, because they are backed by Universal they have a lot more money to invest into films they produce. Although there is a smaller company called Working Title 2 which does produce low budget British films which include Billy Elliot, Shaun of the dead and The Calcium Kid. We think that this production company will be best for our media product as it specializes in low budget British films. Films from both production companies would be then distributed by Universal.

Film Four is a British Film production company which is owned by channel 4. The company has been Responsible for backing a lot of Films made in the United Kingdom. The Chase scene in our Media product could be quite similar to The Chase scene in Trainspotting,as Film four did produce Trainspotting,they possibly could Produce our media production. Trainspotting was a quite low budget film as it was estimated to be around $3,500,000.This is Quite a low budget compared to most Hollywood blockbusters Which have a Budget of over $100,000,000.

Entertainment Film Distributors are a film Distribution company which distributes films throughout the United Kingdom. We Think That this would be the perfect Distribution company for our media product as it has Distributed around 150 films in the UK which is quite a lot for a company that only distributes in the UK. Also our genre is Action,this genre is more known to Large budget Hollywood Films. Although we are making this genre through a low budget and being produced in Britain. What we are trying to do is very difficult and has been tried many times but has only succeeded in only a few.

A Film like Hot Fuzz(2007) is a British Film With a genre of Action/Comedy which is the genre we are trying to do.Hot Fuzz is a great example as it was a great hit Worldwide this could be shown by the amount of money it made comnpared to the budget. The estimated budget of the film was £8,000,000 and : £20,792,585 (UK),

$23,618,786 (USA).

In Conclusion we think that a Film distribution company Like Universal would distribute our film only because the Film would be produced by working title 2.
