The document discusses several film distribution companies and assesses their suitability for distributing an independent horror film of low budget. It is concluded that Left Film Distributor would be most likely to distribute the film, as they specialize in independent horror films for a UK audience, and support independent filmmakers despite having a limited budget. Warner Bros and Film4 Productions are also discussed but considered less suitable due to the former focusing on larger budget films and the latter having cut costs significantly in recent years.

2. FILM DISTRIBUTION
The responsibility of the film distributor is to handle any tasks regarding the
distribution and marketing of the film, for example ensuring that every
cinema gets and a copy of the film and ensuring that the product is being
advertised to a large audience.
One of the main differences between multinational and independent
distribution is the budget the two types of distributer have access to, the
multinational distributer will have a much larger budget to market and
distribute their product in contrast to the multinational distributor. The
multinational distributor will also have a much larger audience as they have a
higher budget, which allows them to have a larger range of media used to
advertise their product and also spread their advertisement to a much larger
audience.

3. WARNER BROS. ENTERTAINMENT INC.
Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc., recognised as Warner Bros. is an American
entertainment company that produces film, television and music
entertainment. Founded 93 years ago on the 4th of April in 1923, the company
has grown greatly and become a household name. Helped by the creation of
now extremely famous characters such as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and
Tweety.
The company's name originates from the four founding Warner brothers
Harry, Albert, Sam and Jack. Last year the company had a revenue of US$
12.992 billion and a very large operating income of US$ 1.416 billion.

4. WARNER BROS. ENTERTAINMENT INC.
It would be extremely unlikely such a successful company would waste time
and resources attempting to distribute such a low profile and low budget film
as ours. They have distributed some films of a similar genre to ours, however
they are of a much higher scale.

5. FILM 4 PRODUCTIONS
Film4 Productions is a Channel Four Television owned British film production
company. The company has been responsible for backing a large number of
films made in the United Kingdom, however it is much lesser known over seas.
The company's first production was released in 1982, the production called
Walter was directed by Stephen Frears. The company is It is especially known
for its gritty, kitchen sink-style films.
Prior to 1998, the company was identified as Channel Four Films or FilmFour
International. Later, the outfit was re-branded as FilmFour, to coincide with
the launch of a new Digital TV channel of the same name. The company cut its
budget and staff considerably in 2002, due to mounting losses, and was re-
integrated into the drama department of Channel 4.
The name "Film4 Productions" was introduced in 2006 in order to tie in with

6. FILM 4 PRODUCTIONS
I believe our film has the potential to be considered by Film 4 productions to
be distributed by them, as they have distributed films of a similar genre and
these films are not of a particular high budget and are not always of the best
quality. Therefore I believe we would be partially successful in attracting their
target audience in regard to their horror genre.

7. LEFT FILM DISTRIBUTOR
Left Film Distribution is a relatively new Independent film distributor
releasing new independent genre movies for UK film fans. They are a dynamic
forward-looking film distributor, who are focus on their passionate of
independent films and film-making. They work on UK based film distribution
of new independent movies in cinemas, on DVD, and download. Many the
films they distribute are mainly in the horror, sci-fi, action and comedy
genres, and offer exciting new work from the new generation of film-makers.

8. LEFT FILM DISTRIBUTOR
I believe Left Film Distributor would be the most likely to agree to distribute
our film, mainly due to their passion of representing the UK’s independent
film making community. They specialise in the distribution of independent
horror films to a UK fan base, they do not have the highest budget to do so.
However their audience would be highly attracted to our media product as it is
of the horror genre and represents the independent film making community.
