2. Proposal for Distribution
I will be distrusting my final documentary in ITV 1 or channel 4.
The reason for this is because ITV 1 contain programme’s where young people are
common to watch such as “Muhammad Ali Thriller in Manila” that can motivate the
young individuals where as, channel 4 is also targeted for young people that contain
teenager’s programme’s as well but mainly informative documentaries for young
people such as “Knock Scourers” which is intended for young audience that brings
community, neighbourhood, tradition and love together and removes segregation. My
documentary will be the same that will help remove segregation from cricket.
