Evaluation of Thriller Opening, Question Three

What kind of institution might distribute your media product and why?
We have produced an useual thriller production using unknown actors, this would therefor most likely attract a niche audience. Other films that are similar are films such as, Submarine, This Is England and Four Lions. Although these three films are niche, they still have relatively wide audiences - this is because of the recent popularity that has sprouted with Warp Films.
As for cinema distribution, it is likely that huge corperate cinemas such as Odeon, and Vue would not display our production because it is not mainstream. Big cinema companies like the ones mentioned mainly distribute films that are blockbusters and will roll in a lot of money because of the huge audiences they attract. It is therefor probable that an art-house cinema would distribute our film, one like cinema city which specialises in attracting niche audiences.
Digital distribution would mainly be done online for our production as advertising online is the best way to attract as many people as possible, and as our film has a low range of possible audiences anyway it is best to go for the area that has the best probability of rolling in viewers. Websites such as Facebook and Twitter would be best to advertise on as these social networks are widely used by the majority of teenagers, and as our film stars three teenagers, social bias would attract teenage audiences.
Warp Films is an independant film company, that receives very low budget as it gets all its funding from the national lottery. However I think that this film company suits our production best as Warp Films specialises in niche films.
