20th      Century Fox
Think about the sort of film you have
produced, and the type of films this company
have released before – are they likely to be
interested in your film? Explain why We
believe that ‘20th centaury fox’ would
show some relative interest in our film
mainly due to the fact that our film is
a similar plot to their (2008) film
‘Taken’. Taken was a very successful
action/thriller production hence why I
believe 20th centaury fox would be
keen to distribute our film.
Is your film going to appeal to UK audiences only? Or does it have a wider appeal?
                                   Why? Why not?




• We believe that our film will attract lots of
  different audiences from all over the world,
  not just UK audience. It will represent
  different ages and also, different ethnicities
  effectively which will encourage a
  multicultural audience.
Some thought about possible marketing strategies, release strategies and exhibition
                                   options



• Possible marketing strategies would be
  elements of advertisement such as; adverts on
  the TV/cinema, posters, banners in busy
  locations, leaflets.
