more.

quality filming experience when the film first comes out. They are most likely
the best experience you will receive in a film because of snacks provided,
drinks, seats and a dark room to enhance the immersion for people.

times.
• Cinema – more likely smaller, independent cinemas will show our film, more
of a local or a cinema that shows smaller films as a whole.
• Film festival – one of the many films shown with the genre for a local
setting.

why?

be shown anywhere. Its because film festivals show local, specialised, national
and sometimes films of all sizes of production as oppose to TV’s and
Cinemas that show the bigger titles to generate the most revenue possible.
