The document discusses choosing a distribution company and production company for a new low-budget, independent thriller film targeted at a young adult audience. Verve Pictures is selected as the distribution company because it is low-budget and independent, and knows how to create buzz and appeal to younger audiences. Wild Horses Entertainment is chosen as the production company for similar reasons, and because it has experience with low-budget British independent films. Using a low-budget independent distributor and producer allows small filmmakers to self-distribute online, reaching audiences through social media platforms and digital releases.

highly beneficial because small localized film makers now have the power to
distribute there films over the internet. I started off promoting my film through
word of mouth of my personal Facebook account, however having this new power
now means I was able to promote my film using:
• Twitter
• Creating a Facebook page
• Creating an anticipation about the film through (digital) word of mouth
• An online release on Vimeo
• Youtube
• A 250 DVD release
• A Cinematic release

page has highly benefited me as
I have been able to promote my
film and get it noticed. I have
received good feedback for the
film and it has received a really
good response.
