3. My choice of media institution to distribute my film.
I have decided to choose dreamworks pictures as the media institution as they have distributed many
different horror/drama films such as ‘Sweeney Todd’ and ‘The Uninvited’
The reason this is significant is
because I believe these two films to
be the most similar to my film
opening, all three of the main plots
are some sort of murderer killing
innocent people. It is a well known
distributing company meaning that it
will easily be recognised by audience
and it will not be seen as a change
for them as they are evidently used to
distributing these sorts of films,
meaning they will know how to do it in
a professional way.
