What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

1. WHAT KIND OF MEDIA
INSTITUTION MIGHT
DISTRIBUTE YOUR MEDIA
PRODUCT AND WHY?
BY MOLLIE RIDGARD

2. WHAT IS A MEDIA INSTITUTION
A MEDIA INSTITUTION IS A COMPANY OR ORGANISATION THAT IS DEALS WITH
MEDIA PRODUCTS. THIS COULD BE THROUGH MARKETING AND PLANNING,
PRODUCTION OF THE FILM, DISTRIBUTION OF THE FINAL FILM OR REGULATIONS
OF THE FINAL FILM.

3. BBC FILMS
• PRODUCING BRITISH INDEPENDENT FILMS
• COMMITTED TO FINDING NEW TALENT OF FILM PRODUCERS
• VERY PICKY WITH WHAT TYPE OF FILMS THEY CHOOSE AND THE TYPE OF
PRODUCERS THEY DECIDE TO CHOOSE.

4. LIONSGATE
• THEY HAVE PRODUCED MORE THRILLER/HORROR FILMS THAN OTHER LOWER
DOWN INSTITUTIONS
• THEY ARE AN INDEPENDENT STUDIO
• THEY AREN’T COSTLY AND ARE IN MOST PRODUCERS PRICE RANGE

5. WHY BBC FILMS MIGHT CHOOSE TO
DISTRIBUTE MY FILM?
• I PERSONALLY THINK THAT ‘LIONSGATE’ WOULD PICK MY OWN THRILLER
BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE PRODUCED A MORE THRILLER AND HORROR
FILMS I FEEL LIKE I HAVE A HIGHER CHANCE IN THEM PICKING MY FILM BECAUSE
IT LOOKS LIKE THEY LIKE TO PRODUCE HORRORS AND THRILLERS. I ALSO THINK
THAT LIONSGATE WOULD CHOOSE MY THRILLER BECAUSE IT IS A THRILLER BUT
IT ALSO HAS A HORROR FEEL TO IT WITH THE BODY UNDER THE BED SHEETS
AND ‘LOLA’ BEING MYSTERIOUS AS IT LEAVES AS LOT OF QUESTIONS FOR THE
AUDIENCE AND LIONSGATE FILMS LEAVES LOTS OF UNANSWERED QUESTIONS IN
THEIR PREVIOUS FILMS LIKE SAW. THE INSTITUTION IS ALSO A PROFITABLE
STUDIO WHICH MEANS MY FILMS COULD BECOME WELL KNOWN.
