2. ๏ We knew we were producing a film which if completed it would be
catogorized as a small independent film. So when looking a
producer and distribution companies, it was small independent
companies which we were looking at. However in the end group 45
did not use an already existing company, we produced our own.
Our production company was called โ Assano Productionsโ and our
distributors was called โ Dragonfly Picturesโ
3. ๏ The Big six company producers are, Columbia pictures (which consist of Sony
Pictures), Warner Bros Entertainment, Walt Disney Pictures, Universal
Pictures, 20th Century Fox and Paramount Pictures. The big 6 normally
distribute films which generally have extremely high budgets and films which
have quite a large fan base. The recent Hollywood production of Django
would be a good example of this.
4. Because our thriller film would come under the category of small
independent films, it would be unlikely that the film would be distributed and
produced by large companies. So if I was to class โโ Dragonfly Picturesโโ it
would compare to a company along the lines of Dogwoof pictures. If I was
going to compare โโAssano Productionsโโ to an already existing Production
company, I will compare it to a production company which goes by the
name of coffee films. Dogwoof and Coffee films are both very small
companies when compared with other companies like the big 6. That is why
they are ideal for our thriller film
5. The film opening we produced will definitely need a small independent
company no matter what because the budget would be very small and it
would not have a big fan base. Films like ours would be promoted using the
internet by using websites like: Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Vimeo. Also the
type of audience we are trying to attract for our film would range from 18 โ 25
As I mentioned before. This also matches the ways of promotion because the
same age group are the number one users of the technologies I mentioned
above. Because our target audience and the techniques of promotion are so
closely linked it would back up why we should use a small company to
distribute our thriller opening
