- DVD sales: $27 Million
- Digital formats: Amazon Instant,
ITunes, Google play.
- Promotion through Posters, trailers,
online advertisements and
interviews.
4. Why Paramount Pictures?
Paramount pictures distribute thriller/horror movies. They do
sometimes distribute movies which have been produced by
an independent production company, Se7en is a good
example of this.
5. I would expect the movie to be a wide release, possibly
national as the movie is set is an urban, well known city. As
well as it being set in locations that can be similar around
the UK. I think this movie will be a digital release as it is for
teenagers and most teens watch movies now on streaming
services like Netflix. I would expect the distributor to
advertise the movie on the streaming site as well as other
websites such as youtube through trailers.
6. Production company
(Independent)
We decided on a mainstream distribution
company but then an independent
distributor as one of the movies we
researched was very successful at using
these companies. The movie was Se7en
starring Morgan Freeman
