Evaluation 3 - What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why? (Studio, TV, Web, DVD etc)

Our thriller is a very small production with no budget. On this basis I don’t think any major distributors would pick this film up as it is not a Hollywood blockbuster with a colossal budget. However, think our film could be distributed by small UK distributors, such as Metrodome. I think our media product could be eligible for the microwave scheme as we could do a lot with a low budget, as we have already shown we can do a lot without one. Moreover, we could finish our film in 18 days to a high quality and so that would be a good scheme for us. Metrodome would be a good distributor for our film as it is a small scale British production and an independent UK distributor, as a result they know how to promote correctly in the UK and I believe my thriller could do incredibly well if given the right support by the right distributor. I would distribute my film via the internet with things such as YouTube. A wide variety of people are on YouTube almost every day and so our product would reach a wide variety of people, and I think my film will appeal to all audiences. I would distribute the film digitally as this is cheaper and we can produce larger amounts of prints and therefore distribute it to more cinemas and exhibitioners rather than having celluloid which is very expensive and doesn’t last as long as digital.
