EVALUATION: Question 3

What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

My film is a psychological Thriller, many institutions produce a selection of genres and styles of film; an institution which I feel has produced many films of a similar mood and therefore may be suited to its production and distribution would be Universal Pictures, this would be because in the past they have worked with 2 of the most respected and popular Thriller genre director/producers since the film industry took off: Alfred Hitchcock and Tim Burton. Hitchcock himself is known as ‘the master of suspense’ and full of suspense is exactly the type of film ‘Psychopath’ is; other aspect included in Universal’s films are those contributed by Tim Burton; many of his films have a dark & dreary feel which sets the mood for a perfect Thriller, therefore I think Universal know exactly how to produce a high quality thriller film due to their past releases.

Because Universal have expectations due to past success this means there will most likely be a frequently audience which watch many of their films; because of the institution’s past set of films containing many thrillers this means that if my film was to be sold my Universal then a large target market will already be interested in it; therefore being better for its revenue intake and popularity.

Other reasons why I think an institution such as Universal Studios/Pictures would be appropriate for my film is that it’s worldwide, with headquarters in California and other large bases in Japan, Singapore and Florida there Institution has the ability to broadcast to a large audience, therefore also increasing the popularity and revenue intake of the film both at the cinema and on DVD/Blur-ray; this would be good because it means the film is likely to make more profit therefore if I was to make another one I may have access to high technologies which may cost more. This will be useful because they may help my films in the future to because more immersive and enticing.
