Film distribution in the mediaa

1. FILM DISTRIBUTION

2. FILM DISTRIBUTION
Film distribution is everything that takes place
between a film production company and exhibition
of the film. Film distribution needs to secure a place
on the exhibitors screen.
Film distribution is all about the marketing of a film.

3. MARKETING
Major film company's have the most control over film distribution.
They can decide what films can get distributed.
The marketing strategies of films are very important and they need to
be appropriate to the target audience of the film. Marketing needs to
insure that when the film is released that they make enough money in
the box office to gain profit (the film should gain about 30% more
than it cost to make, in the first 3 days!)
Marketability- how a film
can be promoted to a particular
audience
Playability- how the film performs in
the market
