Production companies hanan 2
Focus Features is a subsidiary of Universal Pictures that produces and distributes art house films. Formed in 2002 and headquartered in Universal City, California, it has produced thriller films like Eastern Promises, 21 Grams, and The American that are in the spirit of the filmmakers' short coursework film. The document analyzes three potential production companies - Focus Features, New Line Cinema, and Miramax Films - and concludes that Focus Features would be the best choice because its films emphasize suspense and tension over gore or comedy, and feature thought-provoking plots and developed characters.
Question3
The document discusses potential production and distribution partners for a psychological thriller film called "The Last Dance". It analyzes Cross Creek Pictures as a production company, noting they produced the similar film "Black Swan". It also selects Fox Searchlight Pictures for distribution, as they have experience distributing independent and British films like "Black Swan", as well as films like "12 Years a Slave" and "Slumdog Millionaire". Fox Searchlight is part of the Fox Entertainment Group and specializes in U.S. distribution of independent films.
The Film Industry
The document outlines the 6 basic steps to creating and distributing an independent film, including developing an idea, finding a production company, producing and editing the film, distributing it to exhibitors, and having the exhibitors preview it for audiences. It then discusses the research done on major film distributors like 20th Century Fox and smaller UK-based distributor The Works, which was deemed appropriate for a low-budget thriller film due to its experience with similar genre and budget films.
Presentation1
Hammer Productions would be the best company to distribute the media product due to several factors:
1) Hammer is a well-known British production company, located in the UK, which is more suitable for targeting British teenagers.
2) Hammer is known for its Gothic horror films from the 1950s to present day, which would be a good fit for the extreme horror genre of the media product.
3) As an independent distributor, Hammer would allow for easy advertising and promotion targeted at its wide range of UK horror fans, helping to effectively reach the intended audience.
Production and distribution
A film distributor is responsible for marketing a film and setting its release date and viewing method. A production company helps create the film by assisting with budgeting, scheduling, scripting, casting, and more. It oversees the film from initial idea to completion and is responsible for finding a director and actors. However, it is also responsible if anything goes wrong during production, like an actor injury or property damage. The document then provides examples of different films and their production and distribution companies to analyze correlations.
Question 3
Entertainment Film Distributors would be the most suitable company to distribute my film. As a British distributor of independent films in the UK and Ireland, they specialize in backing newcomers and low-budget films. They have distributed several romantic comedies, the genre of my film, including Run Fatboy Run, 17 Again, and Ghosts of Girlfriends Past. Their experience distributing popular romantic comedies in this genre would help ensure wide exposure for my film. Other companies like Momentum Pictures and Artificial Eye were less suitable - Momentum does not work with many low-budget projects and Artificial Eye focuses on art house and foreign films instead of my genre.
Media Distributors
Our low-budget British psychological thriller film would likely be distributed by a small independent film distribution company rather than a major Hollywood studio. Some potential options are Vertigo Films, DNA Films, and Film 4, which specialize in distributing smaller, independent films from non-professional filmmakers. DNA Films in particular seems well-suited as they have experience distributing similar low-budget, dark genre films like thrillers and our film's psychological thriller genre aligns with the types of films they distribute.
Horror institution research
The document summarizes research into two horror film production companies: Hammer Film Productions and Twisted Pictures. Hammer Film Productions was founded in 1934 and specialized in Gothic horror, science fiction, thriller and comedy films. They gained popularity through a distribution deal with Warner Bros. and stopped making films in the 1980s due to increased competition. Twisted Pictures was founded in 2004 to produce the popular Saw horror film franchise. Their success with Saw led to a distribution deal with Lionsgate and established the character Jigsaw as their iconic villain.

Evaluation Question 3
Lionsgate UK would be the ideal media institution to distribute the media product because they are a major UK distributor known for horror films. Lionsgate has had success distributing major horror franchises and films on a small budget. They could help increase the popularity and income of the media product given their expertise in the horror genre.
What kind of media institution might distribute your product and why?
The document considers several potential film production and distribution companies for a low-budget psychological thriller film, including Film4 Productions, Vertigo Films, Hammer Films, and Warner Bros. Film4 and Vertigo Films are identified as the best options because they have experience producing similar low-budget films for British audiences, while Warner Bros. would not be suitable due to only distributing high-budget Hollywood films.
Production companys
Dimension Films would be a good distributor for the film. Dimension Films specializes in distributing horror films, comedies, and action films. They have successfully distributed other slasher horror films like Scream and Halloween. Dimension Films is owned by The Weinstein Company and was formerly used to produce and release genre films for Bob Weinstein when he was at Miramax. New Line Cinema and Universal Pictures would also be good potential distributors as they have both had success distributing popular slasher horror films in the past. A major studio would be best to distribute the film in order to market it widely to its target young adult male audience.
What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
The document discusses film distribution and different film distribution companies. It examines the distributors of the films "Psycho," "Silence of the Lambs," and "Insidious" - Paramount Pictures, Orion Pictures, and FilmDistrict respectively. The document also discusses several British film distributors like Artificial Eye, Entertainment, and Lionsgate UK. It recommends that for a small, independent British film, Lionsgate UK would be the best distributor as they specialize in horror films similar to the proposed media product.
Question 1
Our film, titled "MINE" and about a stalker plotting to kill her ex's girlfriend, would be best distributed by Working Title due to their association with Universal Studios, which would provide access to American actors and a $35 million budget for production and marketing. Failing that, as a small independent production company, we would likely use smaller UK distributors like Warp X, Film4, or ones funded by the BFI and National Lottery, and submit our film to film festivals around the country.
Distribution
The document analyzes different film distribution companies to find the most suitable one for a low-budget media project. It reviews several action films and their distributors, including Paramount Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Lionsgate, Magnolia Pictures, and Vertigo Films. The analysis determines that world-wide companies would not be interested due to the low budget, and recommends focusing on independent distributors that have successfully marketed similar small-scale films.
Assignment #10
Film distribution companies are responsible for releasing films to the public through cinema screenings or home video releases like DVD. There are different types of distributors that specialize in certain genres or budget levels. For a low-budget British film that wouldn't require expensive stunts or be a major blockbuster, the author considered smaller, low-budget British distributors would be the best fit to target the film's audience.
AS Media Studies: Evaluation Question 3
Patchwork Productions would be the most likely to distribute the student's film. It is a small, independent UK film company that produces low-budget thriller films and uses innovative distribution strategies. Unlike larger companies like Warner Bros. and Paramount, Patchwork would be open to distributing an amateur, student film project. Coffee Films could also be a possibility as it focuses on internet distribution that would reach the student's target audience. However, companies like Pixar and Warner Bros that produce major blockbuster films would have no interest in a low-budget, non-professional student film.
Flim institutions
This document summarizes several major film studios in the industry. It describes their founding, headquarters locations, subsidiaries, and example movies for Miramax, Universal, Dreamworks, Columbia Pictures, Lions Gate, Paramount Pictures, and Summit Entertainment. The studios were founded between 1912-1994 and are headquartered in cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Vancouver. They produce a wide variety of films targeted at different age groups.
Evaluation q3
Optimum Releasing would be a suitable small institution to distribute the thriller film. As a low budget UK-based company, Optimum Releasing has experience releasing similar low budget thriller films in the UK market. Larger potential distributors include Universal Studios and Warner Brothers, major Hollywood studios with experience distributing thriller films globally through cinema screens, DVD, and TV platforms. These large institutions could more widely distribute the film but would require a higher budget.
Question 3
Rebecca Wilkinson chose MGM as the film distributor for her action/thriller film "Target" because MGM has previously distributed successful action films from the James Bond franchise. MGM has also seen great box office success with films like Skyfall and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Wilkinson selected a major distributor so that her film would be well known and appealing to audiences. She also included her own production company logo, RWF, to brand herself as a new company with potential. Finally, Wilkinson chose to show "Target" in large chain cinemas like Odeon in order to reach the widest possible audience.
Evaluation question 3
New Line Cinema would be the best distribution company for our slasher horror film based on their successful history distributing similar films. We researched 4 major distribution companies and found that while 20th Century Fox had success distributing some horror films, their top movies did not focus on the horror genre. New Line Cinema, as a subsidiary of Warner Brothers, has extensive experience and success distributing well-known slasher franchises like Nightmare on Elm Street and Final Destination. Their opening weekend box office totals, such as over $63 million for Nightmare on Elm Street, demonstrate their expertise in the horror and slasher genres that aligns with our film.
Film distribution
A film distributor is a company or individual that is responsible for marketing and circulating movies. They set the release date and determine how a film is exhibited, either in theaters or for home viewing on DVD or video-on-demand. An example of a major film distributor is 20th Century Fox, which was founded in 1935 and has distributed and produced popular films and television shows like Star Wars, The Simpsons, and Glee.
Distribution
Revolver Entertainment is recommended as the distribution company because it is a UK-based company founded in 1997 that has transitioned from home video distribution to theatrical distribution successfully. It is known for distributing films similar in nature and target audience to the teaser trailer, such as Kidulthood, Adulthood, and Shank. While Lionsgate and Paramount Pictures are large successful companies, Revolver Entertainment is a better fit as a specialist independent distributor focused on the UK market.
Researching Film Institutions
The document discusses 5 major film studios - 20th Century Fox, Warner Bros, Universal Pictures, Lionsgate, and Hammer Productions. It analyzes each studio's experience producing horror films, finding that Warner Bros and Hammer Productions have the most success and experience within the horror genre. Based on this research, the author concludes that Hammer Productions would be the best choice to produce their new horror film, due to Hammer's specialization and experience with the genre.
Evaluation activity 3 (draft 2)
- A production company is responsible for organizing and distributing a film through tasks like scheduling, budgeting, scripting, and casting. They work with a distributor to market and promote the film.
- Possible distributors for the film include Film4, Lionsgate UK, and StudioCanal as they distribute smaller, UK-based films and have experience with the horror genre.
- Film4 would be the best choice as a distributor since they support emerging talent through lower-budget films and have successfully distributed independent horror films in the past.
Lionsgate power point
Lionsgate would be a suitable distributor for the film Women's Bane because:
1) Lionsgate has successfully distributed similar genre films like the Saw franchise and Cabin in the Woods.
2) They have experience with films in the thriller/horror genre with budgets over $50 million like American Psycho.
3) Women's Bane would appeal to fans of thrillers looking to solve enigmas, as well as those interested in films with female protagonists like The Hunger Games.
Institutional Research
The document discusses film distribution and recommends Vertigo Films as a suitable distributor for a short, independent horror film. It explains that a film distributor is responsible for marketing a film and lists the top 10 UK independent film distributors in 2013. While major studios like Warner Bros. and Lionsgate distribute big-budget horror films, Vertigo Films, as a growing intermediate UK company, would be more appropriate for a short, independent horror film without an extensive editing budget.
Evaluation task 3
Paramount Pictures would be the best distributor for the group's film because it is similar to Shutter Island, which Paramount distributed. Paramount has experience distributing psychological thriller films to wide audiences in countries like the UK, US, and Canada. As the group's film shares similarities with the successful Shutter Island, distributing with Paramount could help their film find a similar level of success in multiple countries.
Brink vision
Brink Vision is an independent film distributor that releases disturbing and inappropriate films not distributed by major conglomerates like Walt Disney. They specialize in "Indie films worth watching" that have unusual or gory content unsuitable for children. One such film they distributed called "White Crack Bastard" includes controversial content that larger studios would not promote. Brink Vision could be a potential distributor for a film deemed too inappropriate for major release.

A film distributor is responsible for marketing and distributing a film. They set the release date and choose how the film will be exhibited or made available for viewing, such as in cinemas or on DVD. Multinational distributors have larger budgets to distribute and promote films nationally or worldwide, while independent distributors have limited local promotion budgets. Left Films and Hammer Films are suggested as potential distributors for the filmmaker's slasher film because they specialize in low-budget horror and thriller genres. Film4 Productions is also proposed as they have successfully distributed similar films without any current competing titles.
Blog3
Left Films would be a suitable distributor for the film as they specialize in distributing low-budget horror and thriller films, including slasher films similar to the one being proposed. Hammer Films and Film 4 Productions could also effectively distribute the film given their experience producing successful horror films and willingness to work with lower budgets. Both companies have audiences interested in the thriller/horror genre and would help attract new viewers.

It also looks at British distributors like Artificial Eye, Entertainment, and Lionsgate UK, concluding that Lionsgate UK would be the best choice as it specializes in horror films. Distributing the media production first in movie theaters would generate publicity and interest before releasing it on DVD, online, and television.
Question 3
Hammer would be a suitable media institution to distribute my media product because it is a British independent production company known for gothic/horror films as well as science fiction, thrillers, film noir and comedies. During its prominent years, it dominated the horror genre with the help of Warner Bros. for distribution and created some iconic independent films representing the thriller genre through tension and suspense.
Question 3
Film distributors play an important role in distributing films to various markets and platforms. For short films, distributors represent the film at festivals and markets worldwide to sell it to companies that screen shorts. For feature films, distributors handle theatrical releases in specific countries as well as marketing and home video/streaming distribution. Distributors will source new films at festivals like Cannes and Sundance.
For a horror film, an independent distributor would be suitable as horror films tend not to get major releases but are well advertised. Independent distributors like Icon Film Distribution and Vertigo Films have experience with successful horror films and could benefit from a hit. Bigger companies also provide experience distributing a wide variety of films. Specialist horror dist

Distribution Company 3 (likely Blumhouse) distributes horror films like Paranormal Activity and Insidious that feature ghosts and spirits. Distribution Company 4 (likely Lionsgate) could provide reliable marketing and promotion due to its large size and experience since 1997. Sony Pictures is a very well-known and established distribution company that has distributed blockbuster films like Robo-cop and The Amazing Spiderman 2, so it would be a wise choice for the OTS due to the high quality and renown of its content.
Question 3
The document discusses potential media institutions to distribute a horror film. It examines Vertigo Entertainment and Blumhouse Productions. Vertigo Entertainment has produced similar horror styles to the film concept and has a deal with Warner Bros, allowing wide distribution. Blumhouse Productions specializes in low-budget, highly profitable horror films through Universal Pictures. They have produced many successful horror films matching the proposed film's style. Of the two companies, Blumhouse Productions would be the best choice as their focus on horror, experience with profitable low-budget films, and Universal Pictures distribution network could maximize the success of the horror film "Hidden".
Question 3
New Line Cinema would be the best media institution to distribute our film for three key reasons:
1) As part of Warner Bros. Entertainment, New Line Cinema can utilize various platforms to widely market and distribute the film to large audiences.
2) New Line Cinema has a good reputation and high popularity amongst international audiences, which will help attract viewers.
3) Our film is a thriller, and New Line Cinema has a history of producing and distributing popular and successful thriller films. Their experience and reputation in this genre makes them a good fit.
Evaluation activity 3
This document discusses potential film distribution companies for a small, low-budget horror film produced by Dream Light Productions. It analyzes Film4, Lionsgate UK, and Studio Canal UK as options, as they have experience distributing similar films in the UK. Film4 is highlighted as a good choice as it supports emerging talent, has a strong online presence, and has successfully distributed films like "Kill List". While global distribution could provide more revenue, national distribution through Film4's UK channels is more realistic given the film's small budget.
Evaluation 3
The document summarizes information about distributing a media product through a production company. It discusses the roles and responsibilities of production companies in managing budgets, scheduling, and marketing. It proposes partnering with Universal Pictures as the production and distribution company due to their success with films like Jurassic World and experience with thriller genres. Kickstarter is presented as a way to gain funding and support from backers. The production company name, HGL Productions, and logo are explained. Finally, online streaming services like Netflix are discussed as popular ways for audiences to access films.
What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
Lionsgate would be the best distribution company for the filmmaker's psychological thriller "The Final Chapter". Lionsgate specializes in distributing thriller and horror films, like the similar film "Gone Girl". As an independent film distributor, Lionsgate would partner with the filmmaker and be easier to negotiate with than a large conglomerate. The filmmaker would also have more input into how their film is distributed. Lionsgate is well established, reliable, and has a history of successfully distributing films that go on to be box office hits. As a major independent film company, Lionsgate could also distribute "The Final Chapter" internationally.
Evaluation 3
The document summarizes HGL Productions' plans for distributing their psychological thriller film "Exitus." They plan to partner with Universal Pictures as both the production company and distributor due to Universal's success with thriller films like Ouija. HGL Productions will use Kickstarter to help fund the film and offer backers rewards. Their production company logo and film title cards are designed to clearly identify HGL Productions and the film. They intend to distribute the film through both traditional theaters and streaming services like Netflix and Now TV to reach a wide global audience.
Evaluation 3
The document summarizes a production company's plans to produce a psychological thriller film titled "Exitus" and distribute it through Universal Pictures. It discusses establishing HGL Productions as the production company and researching Universal as a major distributor of blockbuster and thriller films. It also outlines plans to use Kickstarter for funding and market the film through streaming services like Netflix and Now TV to reach a wide audience.
3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
New Line Cinema would likely distribute the media product due to its experience and success distributing similar horror films. As a subsidiary of Warner Bros., New Line Cinema has the resources of a major studio but focuses on horror. It has distributed highly profitable horror franchises like The Conjuring and A Nightmare on Elm Street. The author's horror film involves paranormal activity, similar to The Conjuring's plot, so New Line Cinema would be interested in distributing a film in that genre. Their upcoming slate of horror films including The Conjuring 2 also indicates interest in the genre.
3) What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
New Line Cinema would be the most suitable media institution to distribute my horror/thriller film product. As a subsidiary of major studio Warner Bros, New Line Cinema would provide sufficient financing and worldwide distribution to maximize publicity and revenue. New Line Cinema has a track record of successfully distributing similar horror films like The Conjuring series that relate to the paranormal plot of my product. They are also increasing their output of horror films, demonstrating interest in the genre. While an independent studio, New Line Cinema's relationship with Warner Bros allows it to reach broad audiences like a major distributor.
Evaluation question 3
A media institution refers to the people and organizations involved in producing and distributing media texts, such as companies, producers, and distributors. The document discusses what type of media institution might distribute a horror film product. It suggests that a major company could widely promote the film, but acknowledges that many horror films are distributed by smaller companies. Ultimately, it determines that Film 4 would be the most realistic distributor, as it supports both low-budget and blockbuster films, focuses on the UK market, and could handle the non-professional standard of the opening sequence.
Evaluation question 3
Revolver Entertainment and Momentum Pictures are suggested as appropriate UK-based independent film distribution companies to distribute the film. Revolver Entertainment has experience distributing thriller films including horror thrillers like House of Last Things. Momentum Pictures previously distributed major horror titles before being acquired but is looking to rebuild recognition. Working with these London-based companies would allow for easier communication and initial UK-only release to gauge critic reception before pursuing worldwide distribution.
Evaluation question 3
The document discusses different types of media institutions that distribute films, namely conglomerate studios like Time Warner and independent companies like Warp X. Conglomerate studios distribute big-budget films with recognizable stars to appeal to mass audiences globally, while independent companies distribute lower-budget, niche films. The document uses the examples of the thriller Se7en being distributed by a major studio due to its large budget and stars, and Donkey Punch being distributed by an independent studio with a smaller budget and national stars. It determines that an independent studio would be the best option to distribute the film "The Syndrome" due to its low budget and lack of famous actors.
EVALUATION QUESTION THREE
Vertigo Films and Revolver Pictures would be suitable distribution companies for the independently produced thriller film "The Vine Project" because both companies specialize in distributing similar low-budget, independent films in both the UK and US markets. Vertigo Films in particular has experience distributing films from the same thriller genre. Releasing the film first through online streaming platforms as well as film festivals could help build an audience without large marketing costs before a wider theatrical release in October to capitalize on Halloween interest in horror films.
Evaluation: Question 3
The document discusses different options for distributing a film media product. It examines the "Big 4" major film studios (20th Century Fox, MGM, Paramount, Warner Bros.), but determines they are not suitable. Independent film companies are also considered but deemed not a good fit. Finally, Hammer Film Productions is selected as it specializes in horror and thriller genres matching the author's film, and is well-known while still being independent.

Evaluation question 3
- 1. BY STEVE HOY EVALUATION QUESTION 3 DISTRIBUTION
- 2. DISTRIBUTION COMPANIES OF THRILLER FILMS There are many distribution companies associated with distributing films that belong in the thriller genre. Depending on their size, determines what type of Thriller film will be distributed. A larger company is more likely to distribute a film produced by ‘The Big Six’, compared to an independent film company.
- 3. PRODUCTION Hammer films is a film production company based in the united kingdom. The company was founded in 1934 and is known for its distribution of ‘Gothic Horrors. It is also known for its production of thriller films and film noir. Films by this company often resemble the works of acclaimed filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock, who created some of the most suspenseful and shocking films ever made. The company focuses a lot on psychological thrillers.
- 4. MY FILM Hammer Films would be an appropriate producer of my film, as they focus on psychological and mystery thrillers. They are also based in the UK where my film was made, and they are an independent company, which is suitable as my film was low-budget.
- 5. DISTRIBUTION A film distributer is a company responsible for marketing a film, to sell it to as many audiences as possible and therefore make a profit. This includes considering things such as release date, home media and cinema showings. When researching companies associated with the thriller genre, ‘Kaleidoscope’ , an independent company, came up in the research. It has become a fast-growing film distribution company recently. The company would be appropriate to distribute my film, as it focuses on small films of the same genre. The company tends to notice unknown writers and directors which big distribution companies would otherwise ignore.
