(3) What kind of media instution might distribute your media product and why?

Due to the fact we are a small, independent production, we did not have a big budget for our film's production therefore would attract big distributors either.  Despite the fact we are a British production, I doubt our film would attract a small, independent British distributor as they would target more towards a British audience and a film like ours is more associated with the American culture.  However, if we were able to get an American distributor, I feel that they would invest predominantly in getting our film into cinemas as the film has more of a focus on the visual aspects and would best viewed this way.




If money was not an issue, or we were able to more financiers, we could produce more of a professional production therefore bigger distributors would be attracted to our film.  The Weinstein Company, or more specifically, Dimension Films, distributed big blockbusters such as Sin City and The King's Speech.  Both of the said films are renown for their use of cinematography and appeals to many people for the use of graphics and imagery.  I feel that our feel fits this a similar category and, as Dimension Filmshas worked with similar films before, they would know what appeals this type of audience and be able to advertise both the film and the DVD in a way that attract a mass audience and in turn more profit.  Also, Warner Bros have produced films such as Slumdog Millionaire and Batman but also seem keen to distribute films for their independet, creative aspect so I feel, considering they are also a big international company, they would be able to successfully distribute our film.
