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

2. DECIDING
 All of the films that we have researched have been distributed by
both major and independent distributor companies.
 It would be hard for us to get a major distributor company because
it was made on a low budget and have no famous people.

3. UNIVERSAL STUDIOS
 It is a main multinational media conglomerate which owns many
distribution marketing company's such as Ticket master. It is one of the
largest American picture companies.
 It promotes a lot of rom-coms, as well as other genres too.
 This is my main choice of distribution companies because it is very well
known so therefore our film will get a lot of attention and views.

4. SONY PICTURES
 Sony Pictures Entertainment Inc. is the American television and
film production and distribution unit of Japanese multinational
technology and media conglomerate Sony.
 This was the distributor for Stepbrothers which our first idea was
originally based on.

5. COLUMBIA PICTURES
 Columbia Pictures Industries is an American film production and
distribution studio, that is part of the Columbia Tri-Star Motion
Picture Group, owned by Sony Pictures
 An example of rom com they produced is 50 First Dates

6. MOMENTUM PICTURES
 Momentum Pictures is one of the leading independent motion
picture distributors in the UK and Ireland and releases approximately
20 theatrical films a year, with several dtv releases.

7. SONY PICTURES CLASSICS
 An autonomous division of Sony Pictures Entertainment that
distributes, produces and acquires independent films from the United
States and around the world.
 This could be good to distribute our film because it is a subsidiary of
Sony which is a major company, however it still produces
independent films on a much smaller budget which is better
for us. They also distribute a lot of indie rom-coms such as
Saving Face.

8. UNIVERSAL STUDIOS IS
OUR DISTRIBUTOR
 Although Universal Studios is a major distributor, we have decided
to go with it because we feel it will suit our film and they
produce a lot of different rom-coms, such as The Five Year
Engagement.
 However, we would probably have been better to go with a
smaller, independent distributor such as Sony pictures classics
and hope they would consider a theatrical release.

9. WE MEDIA
 We could, of course, distribute our film ourselves
 This is due to we media
 Convergence also helps this as it has allowed all technologies to come
together and so people will be able to view it anywhere
 We would need to find suitable distribution platforms online such as
iTunes and YouTube which would not be too hard
 We have already done this via face book and YouTube ourselves when
getting audience feedback
