Evaluation Question 7

What kind of Media institution might distribute your media product and why?

A production company funds a film project and provides them with the tools to produce the film, mainly this includes funding because they may need vast amounts in order to build the film they desire production can include casting, editing and equipment . This includes pre-production and post production, so from making the film to editing the film they will help them along the way. After this the production company will sell what they have produced to the distributor.

A film distributor is a company which will have been sold a film after it has been produced, by a production company. A film distributors job is to release the film this can be through, the cinema and how it reaches the big screen, DVD's, and even how it gets onto the telly. This is the job in which they have to provide for the film. In my opinion Facebook, Twitter and youtube sites are 'unofficial' distributors because it is a way in which a film could get itself distributed across to the public.

I would try get touchstone productions to distribute my film because they have distributed a few romantic comedy films so they will know how to distribute to attracted the target audience i would like to reach. They distributed pretty woman which is a romantic comedy and it was a success so by using this company we could hope for similar success.

Our money for our film would ome from one investor with a lump sum this is good beause we know what we are getting and if we want our film to be sucessful we need a large amount of money. There is a downside where we might have to make the film how the investor wants it to be but we are able to do this is we can get a reasonable profit and to do this we need money for advertising and anything else to push our film out there.
