Q3: What Kind of Media Institution might Distribute your Media Product and Why?

Our film has got niche appeal therefore it is suitable to be independently produced and distributed in a national release.

Production:

Our production company is called Frozen Productions.

• Specialise in Romantic dramas
• Create indie films from small budgets
• Usually produce films aimed at core cinema demographics, 15-24 year olds.

Distributor:

We chose Entertainment Distributors to distribute our film in national cinemas and on DVD and bluray.

Entertainment Film Distributors:

They are the UK’s leading distributor that was founded in 1978.

They operate in the UK and Nothern Ireland and on different platforms.

Main Genres: Drama, Comedy, Thriller, Action, Romance 

110 Drama titles E.g. Lassie

48 Romance titles. E.g. Silver Linings Playbook

Other successful films: Around the World in 80 days, Run Fatboy Run, Lord of the Rings Trilogy.

The Weinstein Company, the distributor of the American film, Silver Linings Playbook, originally planned an unusual wide national release. However they then decided to build up the release by releasing in few US cinemas which finally amounted to 700 cinemas in USA.
