2. What are Film Distributors?
These are the people that are responsible for
marketing a film. In order to do this they need
to identify that main target audience in order
to maximise profits and make as much
money as possible.
Distributors need to be confident in the film,
confident that it will make a profit, otherwise
they will not invest.
4. What needs to be considered by
Distributors
How much of a risk will be taken when
purchasing rights?
How specific is the target audience?
Is there a possibility of a potentially
successful sequel?
How much of a substantial profit would
potentially be made?
5. Competitors
If there is a highly anticipated film being
released around the same time, they would
be more likely to see the competition.
Cast is always important. If a highly
recognisable director such as Quentin
Tarantino is directed a film, people would be
reassured that the film would be good,
opposed to an none-proven amateur director.
6. DNA Films
This company was set up in 1997 and has since produced films such as 28
weeks later and sunshine.
As our opening sequence is not a Hollywood blockbuster and more of a of
budget independent film, this type of company would be the sort that would
publish our film.
28 Days Later had a low budget of £5 million and has been their most
successful as it grossed over £50 million, with a sequel as well.
7. BryAnton Films
This company is the producer of our film, and was
founded by Conor Bryan andTom Anton.
This company is an independant UK based firm, like Film
4 and DNA films
