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

What Does A Production Company do?


A production company covers many different areas of the production such as budgeting, schedulingscripting, the supply with talent and resources, the organization of staff, the production itself, post-productiondistribution, and marketing.


What is your idea of a film distributor?


A film distributor is the term for the company that are responsible for actually getting the media product out into the public.


Who might be a distributor for your film and why?


In truth, I feel that because my film is a low budget one, it wouldn't be distributed by any of the major companys. However, because of this, we technically could put some money behind it and distribute it on YouTube, as we have done, just without the financial backing. Another way that I could distribute this film is through social networking sites, like Facebook and Twitter, as it has the potential to be distributed to a large audience, with social networking sites being very widely used internet sites.


Where would the money come from for a film such as yours?


I think that the best method of raising the funds to actually distribute this film is through advertisements. Even though I would have to pay out money to actually advertise in the first place, if I had a large quantity of adverts, then there would be more chance of the public going to actually watch the film which will ultimately lead to more money being profited.


Why have the various people been named in your titles? Which jobs appear in your titles and in what order and how have you reflected this?


The only time that I used anyones name within my opening sequence is to show who directed, created and starred in the opening sequence. this was just to clarify and credit those that were involved in my opening sequence.


How is your film similar 'institutionally' to others? Name some films which would be released in a similar way.


My opening sequence comes under the genre of action. Other films from this genre have a major backing financially and so the advertisement for their films would cover a large area of the world to promote their films in the best way possible so they could get their money back that they had already put into its production. Films like the Expendables would be an example of this.
