Question 3: What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?


We have decided that our film is going to be independent because it is a low budget film with no special effects. What company we are targeting to distribute our media product is Studio Canal or Pathé as they have distributed films to a similar genre to ours such as ‘Orphan’ and ‘Attack the Block’. Or we were thinking of releasing our film at a film festival (BFI London Film Festival & Raindance Festival) where we could get some attention for potential distributors. 
For our distribution campaign we were thinking of having a similar one to Attack the Block where we are going to release advertisements around where our target audience lives. We are also going to release trailers in theatres where we will be showing our movie and we may go and release a few teaser trailers on social networking sites where we would have a page set up. On this social networking page we will also have some competitions so we can get our target audience to enter so this will get them excited for the release. 
If we are ambitious we could get our movie noticed by a big distribution company where they will be able to release our movie in a few mainstream cinema’s and they will also be able to get a better advertisement campaign than our initial one.
Overall we hopefully will be able to get a secure distribution deal and get a good company backing us.
