Film distribution
Film distribution is the process of making movies available to audiences by delivering films to cinemas. Distribution companies play a huge role in the film economy by bringing finished movies to life and connecting them with audiences. They spend about £300 million annually on advertising and distributing new releases in the UK. The path a film takes to reach cinemas involves the studio buying rights and producing the film, then making a deal with a distribution company who screens the film for cinema buyers and negotiates showings. Distributors must consider the target audience and season when deciding when is best to release a film.
Shifty case study
This is a complex question without a straightforward answer. A film's success is usually determined by both its appeal and the resources devoted to distributing and marketing it. Here are a few key points:
- A highly appealing film is more likely to find an audience, but it still needs exposure through distribution and marketing channels to reach its potential viewers.
- Marketing and promotion help raise awareness of a film and convey what it's about, which is important for driving interest and ticket/DVD sales. This is especially true for independent films with limited budgets.
- Wider distribution through more cinemas and territories increases the chances of finding an audience. However, distribution is costly and not guaranteed to overcome lack of appeal.
-
The film process
The key stages of the film process are production, distribution, marketing, and exhibition/consumption.
Production involves creating the film and arranging financing. Distribution gets the film to theaters and other platforms. Marketing uses techniques like trailers, ads, and publicity events to promote the film. Exhibition/consumption is when audiences view the film in theaters or at home.
Afie l6 industry
The document lists various film marketing strategies that can be used to promote a film in 2 minutes or less, including:
- Posters, trailers, viral campaigns, TV interviews, print ads, social networking, websites, Q&A sessions, YouTube videos, and merchandise. It provides a concise overview of the essential film marketing tactics.
Film Production Cycle
The key stages of the film process are production, distribution, marketing, and exhibition/consumption.
During production, a production company creates the film through pre-production, production, and post-production. Distribution involves releasing and sustaining the film in the marketplace through techniques like wide release, platform release, and limited release. Marketing employs strategies such as trailers, advertisements, publicity events, and product tie-ins to promote the film. Finally, exhibition makes the film experience available to audiences through cinema screenings and home media like DVDs, streaming, and TV broadcasts.
P:\media studies\as level media\film industry\working title\how film makes it...
A film aims to make money at different stages of its commercial lifecycle, including theatrical exhibition, home video/DVD, television, and international distribution deals. Most films recoup their budgets through DVD sales. The more a film is distributed through different channels and territories, the more revenue it can generate for producers and distributors. However, many independent British films struggle to earn back their production costs from theatrical release alone.

Task
The film industry works to maximize profits by reducing risks during production. Studios consider factors like previous films' successes, recognizable directors/actors, popular genres, and merchandising opportunities to attract audiences. The British film industry lacks major studios and relies on complex co-financing between government funds, distributors, broadcasters, and investors. To compete, British companies like Vertigo Films make low-budget films targeting commercial appeal through new technologies and financing from multiple investors.
Question 3 – what kind of media institution might distribute your media produ...
A Hollywood conglomerate would be an unsuitable distributor for the film "Tracks of Damnation" because they aim for large global audiences with high budget films, whereas "Tracks of Damnation" is a low budget British independent film with a niche national audience. A UK distributor would be more appropriate as they invest in Category A British films and have a target niche national audience. Funding options in the UK include Film4, the National Lottery, or the BFI.
Supply and demand
The document discusses the relationship between the film industry and audiences, noting that while the industry aims to pressure audiences into buying products, audiences also wield influence over the industry. It traces the rise and popularity of cinema from the early 1900s through the mid-20th century, then discusses factors that have led to a decline in cinema attendance in recent decades, such as the availability of films through other mediums like online streaming and DVDs.
Film Distribution ect.
This document discusses distribution options for a new media product. It defines production and distribution, with production referring to the filmmaking process and distribution getting the completed film to audiences. Distribution can occur through theaters, DVD/Blu-ray, TV channels like Netflix. The document examines Metrodome as a potential distributor, noting they work with both small independent films and larger budget films. It analyzes whether the new media product would appeal to a UK audience given its focus on teenagers, and discusses marketing, release and exhibition strategies like posters and trailers. Self-distribution is also mentioned as a riskier option that could succeed.
What kind of media institution might distribute your media product
The document discusses potential media institutions that could distribute a psychological thriller film produced by media students. It analyzes that independent cinemas and film festivals like Sundance and BFI would be most suitable since they showcase new and aspiring filmmakers. Local cinemas and television channels like BBC and Film4 would not likely distribute the film due to it being a small student production without publicity or popular actors. The document concludes that film festivals are the most probable distribution avenue to gain support, publicity and recognition for the new filmmakers.
Global institutions and global audiences
Global institutions like Disney dominate media production through their vast financial resources that allow extensive marketing and distribution worldwide. However, independent films can still succeed globally with a quality product like "The King's Speech", which earned over $400 million despite a smaller budget and target audience. While institutions produce most films, independent companies demonstrate there is appetite for alternatives through viral marketing and a compelling story. Overall, global institutions largely control media production, but independent films can still achieve influence.

The film A Field in England was produced on a very low budget of £300,000 by independent British production company Rook Films. It utilized new technologies and a non-traditional distribution strategy, being simultaneously released in UK cinemas, free-to-air television, DVD, and video-on-demand. This innovative approach aimed to maximize audience reach and profits. Initial results were positive, with solid cinema box office and thousands of digital/DVD purchases in the first week. Audiences responded positively overall to having increased access options.
Marketing and promotion
This document discusses marketing strategies for promoting a new science fiction film made by an independent British film company. It recommends using digital technologies like websites and social media for viral marketing. The primary audience is families, with a secondary audience of sci-fi fans aged 17-25. A PG rating would be suitable to appeal to both. Special effects and an ethnically diverse cast including strong female characters could draw audiences used to big Hollywood films. Promotional partnerships, merchandise, interviews and previews at comic conventions would help build hype leading up to a festival premiere or London premiere to launch the film.
Question 3
Vertigo Films would be the best institution to distribute my thriller film. Vertigo has a wide genre range, has successfully distributed similar low-budget films, and their website would help promote the film to interested audiences. Social media also needs to be incorporated into the distribution plan to target my intended audience, though illegal downloads are a risk and the film would need to be monitored online.
Evaluation activity 3
This document discusses potential film distribution companies for a small, low-budget horror film production. It analyzes Film4, Lionsgate UK, and Studio Canal UK as options. Film4 is identified as the preferred choice as it specializes in smaller, UK-based films and has a track record of distributing successful horror titles. Though Lionsgate and Studio Canal also have experience with the genre, they tend to focus on higher budgets than the production being considered. Film4 could provide national distribution through its Channel 4 and E4 platforms, targeting younger audiences, and may allow global reach through partnerships.

Film production distribution process 11 11 2015
The film distribution process involves multiple stages from production through exhibition with the goal of profitably releasing a film to audiences. Major distribution companies determine print quantities and control theater relationships. While vertical integration can maximize profits, independent films rely on distributor partnerships. Costs are high, but revenue comes from theaters, home video, TV, and merchandising. Problems include high promotion budgets and uncertainty in a changing distribution landscape.
Institutions

Film marketing
Film marketing is crucial to the success of a film and involves promoting a film through advertising to encourage viewers. Getting a film seen widely, such as through film festivals, is key as it provides exposure and a platform to find distribution. The Bradford International Film Festival is an example of an established festival that showcases new talents and can help get films viewed by larger audiences. In addition to festivals, using social media is an effective low-cost way to generate interest and promote films through word-of-mouth marketing.

Question 3
The document discusses potential distribution options for an independent, low-budget thriller film. It analyzes why large chain cinemas and major TV networks would be unlikely given the film's scale.

We could also use social media and free screenings to promote the film. Finally, applying for funding from bodies like the BFI would help with distribution, as they support getting British films to wide audiences, and securing their backing may attract other funders as well.

What kind of media institution might distribute your media product?
Evaluation question 3- Shauna
This document discusses different aspects of film distribution and exhibition. It defines media institutions and independent films. It provides examples of independent cinemas and film festivals such as the Edinburgh International Film Festival and Cannes Film Festival. It also discusses film distribution through television channels and websites, as well as young filmmakers competitions.
Part 8 - distrubution and exhibition
The document discusses how short films are distributed and exhibited through both conventional and newer digital methods. Traditionally, short films were screened at festivals to be viewed, but this is becoming less common due to changes in media consumption. Now, short films are often posted on websites like YouTube and Vimeo for online viewing. Some channels and websites exclusively distribute short films. DVD compilations of short films are also produced and sold. While conventional methods still make some money, new digital distribution methods are decreasing reliance on traditional exhibition as media continues to evolve online.

Distribution powerpoint
Distribution is the process of bringing films from producers to audiences. It is often called the "invisible art" as it operates behind the scenes. In the UK, distribution focuses on marketing films in local markets. It involves licensing films from producers and coordinating with exhibitors. Key aspects of distribution include producing promotional materials, advertising campaigns, arranging film screenings and transporting physical film prints to theaters. Recently, the industry has transitioned to digital distribution which allows films to reach wider audiences more cheaply and with higher quality than traditional distribution methods.
Film Industry Answers
The document discusses the distribution of the films Straight Outta Compton and I, Daniel Blake. It provides information on what film distribution entails, such as releasing and marketing films. For Straight Outta Compton, Universal Pictures distributed the film internationally using a saturated release pattern. I, Daniel Blake was distributed internationally through various smaller distributors suited for its independent and niche audience. Both films used platform release patterns to build audiences through word-of-mouth in key territories.
Evaluation question 3
The document discusses various methods for distributing media products, including through cinemas, online streaming services like Netflix, DVD/Blu-ray, and film festivals. It notes that cinemas are usually the first distribution method for films. Online streaming is beneficial due to large audiences and promotion of similar content. DVD/Blu-ray allow portable and repeated viewing. Film festivals are best for independent films seeking recognition. The document recommends distributing a horror film first through cinemas, then DVD/Blu-ray, and later online streaming to maximize the potential audience and profit.
Lesson One - Audience and Institutions
The document provides an overview of the film industry for an exam, including the key areas of production, distribution, and exhibition. It discusses how a film moves through these three stages, from being produced by a production company, to being distributed nationally and internationally by distributors in theaters and home markets, to finally being exhibited in theaters or bought for home viewing. It also explains the concepts of horizontal and vertical integration, where large parent companies own subsidiaries across different stages of the film industry.
2015 Nov The Film Circuit Hybrid .ppt
This document provides information and tips for international film distribution. It discusses the international film circuit, including major festivals and markets. Film distribution involves international sales agents licensing films to distributors who get the films to audiences. Key territories discussed include the US, Europe, Latin America, and Asia. The document also addresses issues like digital delivery and day-and-date distribution. Publicity and adapting campaigns for different cultures and markets are also covered.
Question 3
The document discusses potential media institutions to distribute an independent psychological thriller film. It analyzes that an independent cinema like Dorking Halls would be more suitable than a large chain cinema as it has a smaller size and might be more interested in showcasing different genres. Of film festivals considered, the BFI London Film Festival would be the best fit as it regularly features thriller films and appeals to audiences interested in that genre. Overall, an independent cinema is deemed the best outlet as the film's niche audience and genre would not find success through mainstream distribution channels.
Evaluation Question 3
Online streaming platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime would be the best way to distribute an independent supernatural horror film. Some key reasons include:
- Online streaming has a huge, global audience and continues to grow in popularity unlike other methods like DVDs.
- Supernatural horror films already have an audience on these platforms, so the target niche is clearly defined.
- Online distribution is inexpensive, which benefits smaller independent production companies with limited budgets. Once on a streaming site, the film can generate ongoing revenue over time.
Independent cinema research media molly
The document discusses the process of independent filmmaking, including developing a story, pitching ideas, creating storyboards and scripts, filming, editing, and distribution. It contrasts independent films, which are lower budget and not funded by major studios, with mainstream films from large studios that have bigger marketing budgets. It also lists some UK independent film producers and festivals that can help get independent films exposure.

12 steps to transform your organization into the agile org you deserve
12 steps to transform your organization into the agile org you deserve
Part 4 - Festivals
- 2. Question One: Which are the feature film festivals that have important shorts sections? First, let’s begin with some of the bigger feature film festivals with shorts sections. As one of the UK’s leading feature film festivals, the BFI shorts section is one of the more important in Britain. Likewise, the Edinburgh international film festival has seen shorts screened there from many popular British Directors. The world’s leading International film festival. The Cannes Film festival broadcasts an array of Short Films from all around the globe. Former festival winners include Scottish Director Lynne Ramsey, whose short film Gasman won the Jury prize in 1998.
- 3. It must acknowledged, however, that these festivals are HUGE Competition is therefore very tight, as having a Short Film screened there gives aspiring directors a very good chance of having your work shown to both the press, and perhaps producers.
- 4. Look where it got Lynne Ramsey!
- 5. Here is an example of a lesser known feature festival with a shorts section. While a director is far less likely to be noticed, it is by far easier to have your short screened at a place like this than places like Cannes and the Edinburgh film Festival.
- 6. How do festivals market and promote themselves? Other Means of Marketing them include: Film Magazines Local Media Print (for smaller festivals) Line Up Promotion News Letters Festivals may also be marketed toward their target audience. A festival for Young Adult filmmakers, for example, will use marketing to appeal to young adults Somewhat childish font indicates demographic
- 7. Why Is It Important to be shown at one? They’re one of the most popular forms of short film exhibition As primarily a demonstration of a director’s artistic capability, short film festivals can determine whether or not a director goes on to make a feature. The people in possession of the power to make this judgement attend these festivals
- 8. HOWEVER: • It is very unlikely that a director will be given a chance to make a feature of their idea from the short film they make: • Competition is high! • It does still serve as an ultimate means of promotion, however.
- 9. Who attends them? It depends on the type of festival you’re attending!
- 10. Who attends them? Edinburgh/London style Festivals Smaller, Independent film Festivals Producers Film aficionados
- 11. How are They Supported? Edinburgh/London style Festivals Smaller, Independent film Festivals Advertisers Charging a fee Charing a fee for entry
- 12. What have you noticed about the structure/style of the sites?: Edinburgh Sparse amount of text: visually striking Social Media contact Options bar: easy to manoeuvre around the website Colour pallet: whites, blues, blacks – suggestive of modernity, development, technology. Stylish. Dates for festival Information about submission Information about competition
- 13. London independent Dates for next festival Options bar: easy to navigate around website Featured films Colour pallet: again, a focus on whites, blacks, silvers. Conveys a sense of modernity and style. Perhaps the production values here, being blockier than in Edinburgh’s, are indicative of the festival’s lower budget when set against the more mainstream festival Film Wreaths Information about sponsors: more than In Edinburgh, smaller festival therefore needs
- 14. What are other key national festivals? • Cambridge film festival • Seagate Foyle Film Festival • Encounters Film Festival
- 15. What are other key national festivals? • Sundance Film Festival (USA) • Interfilm Berlin(Germany) • Venice Film Festival
- 16. What are other student film festivals? National International Gijon international festival for young adults
- 17. Online Short Film Festivals • With the emergence of the digital age, online consumption of short film have become growingly popular. • This growing popularity certainly has led to the emergence of Online Short Film Festivals.
- 18. Examples of Online Short Film Festivals
- 19. Online Short Film Festivals • While these film festivals are still relatively small, they offer a variety of new opportunities for short film makers. • As perhaps the foremost means of social communication, Online Short Film Festivals represent a good way of advertising new directorial talent, as viably it can be exposed to a far wider audience than • It is also far easier to consume short films online, considering the length of short films in comparison to the effort one makes in attending a Short Film Festival.
- 20. The End
