2. WHAT DO FILM DISTRIBUTERS DO??
Film producers need to distribute their film by getting their
distributers to get the film into cinemas, and then on to DVD/blue
Rays, iTunes and streaming sites such as Netflix or amazon instant
video. They also plan when and ware the film is going to be
shown on the telly vision. So the job of the distributer is to get the
film to the audience so that it can start to make them money
and keep making money for along as possible.
3. WHAT DISTRIBUTOR WILL WE USE??
As our film is a mainstream film I think that the best distributor for
us to use will be warner Brothers (WB). As they are a very big
studio they have their own distribution company's such as sonny
pictures so they will be able to advertise our film widely and get
our film recognised to maximize the amount for money that our
film can produce. I think that it would be a good idea to use this
company as they are well known and have the resources
available for us to be able to get the biggest audience possible.
4. SMALL BUDGET FILMS: ROCKY
The blockbuster rocky films based on a boxer is a good example
of a low budget action film that has made it to the spot light.
They had a budget of just £1 million and made them
£225million(box office recite). This goes to show that a low
budget film doesn't have to have a niche audience as the rocky
films were very popular when they first came out so you can say
that they made a major success in the film industry.
5. FILM STUDIO GOOD FOR ACTION FILMS
this is a good film studio for action films Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. I
thick that it is a good reason to say that this film studio is good at
making action films as they are the studio that is responsible for
the James bond films. These films are a very well known UK spy
films and have brought in £6billion aver all and with more films to
come. I think that they would be a good studio to go to for the
distribution of our film but it is not as well known as Warner
brothers so they wouldn't bring in as much money.
6. WHERE WILL OUR FILM END UP???
As our film is a mainstream action film, I think that it would most
likely end up in a big multiplex cinema so that we can maximize
our audience and ensure that we get the most money that we
can. I could see our film going to cinemas such as the odien and
cineworld as they are both very well know cinema and they
trend to play the more mainstream films. If it was a niche film than
I would expect that these places wouldn’t want our film as it
wouldn’t ensure them the money that they need to cover their
costs.
7. ADVERTISING AND MARKETING
The type of place that I think would be good for our film to be
advertised are posters in and around the cinemas so that people
who like to watch films can see the new film this will maximize out
target audience. We will also have a TV advert o during the add
breaks on film four as there is likely to be a large audience that
fits the target audience. There will also be banners on busses
advertising. They work as moving advertising so they will be able
to advertise to thousands so people. There will also be adverts in
the front of videos on YouTube so that we can maximize the
amount of people who will see the advert.
