To best suit our film and convince us into releasing our film into the Mainstream Film Industry, we would need to have a well respected film distributor. The only way I think that we could decide on a distributor is to look over the individual films that each have released. This way we could have an accurate judgement on which distributor our film suits best. Throughout the whole of the UK some of the biggest distributors ive researched include:
20th Century Fox
Paramount
Warner Bros and
(MGM) Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
However along side these huge companies there are many smaller distributors that have released many well known and recognised smaller films. Such as:
Blue Dolphin Films and
Axiom Films
The film industry consists of the technological and also the commercial institutions where the likes of distribution comes in. The Film Industry of filmmaking consists of these technical easpects:
Film Production Companies
Film Studios
Cinematography
Film Production
Screenwriting
Pre-Production
Post Production and
Distribution
After researching the Distribution has the role of pursuading exhibitors to show the film being distributed. This is done by holding screening for the film being distributed and also showing the exhibitors the plan for the marketing scheme, this is intended to show the exhibitor that the film is very capable of making a profit.
After doing some research of the types of films that different distributors have released I think our film would definalty suit a bigger wellknown company.
Here is some of the research I have found on teh distributor and the films released or are due to be released:
Warner Bros: Sex and the City - May 27th 2010
Valentines Day - February 14th 2010
Nighmare on Elm Street 2010 - 7th May 2010
20th Century Fox: From Hell - 19th October 2001
Omen - 06/06/2006
The Hills Have Eyes - 10th March 2006
Taken - 30th January 2009
MGM - Jeepers Creepers 2 - 29th August 2005
Black Christmas - 25th December 2006
1408 - 22nd June 2007
The bigger the company the higher the chamces are of sealing and securing bigger deals. Which means for our film the distribution it deserves and profit hopefully on top og that.
The next step in which we would have to take in our decision to release our film is to find a large distribution Company that has had success in the past with Horror Genre films.
Due to some Primary research I have come to the conclusion that 20th Century Fox would be the best film distributor for our film as it best fits the genre that we disire our Distributor to be familiar with. Films sich as The Omen and The Hills Have Eyes; both these films have similar trates which relate to the themes produced in our opening title sequence. 20th Century Fox is professional in the way they handle their distribution, they are highly respected both Nationally and Internationally.
