Evaluation 3:

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

If I had a chance to distribute our media product i would distribute my product to a independent companies to see what they think of it and see whether is it a successful thriller opening. If it was a successful i would show my idea to an international or large media company. Distributing and showing the media product to both small and large companies will quickly broaden the audience and the film title would become more known so this would gain a bigger and wider audience.

By distributing my media product to a smaller company first will us me to get many different feedbacks and let me know how successful our media product will be before we move into a larger company which would just waste time if it was not a success. Also another advantage is that more profit can be gained this way as no money would have been lost through commercialism. Distributing to larger companies would increase the films reputation which will increase the target audience as more people are aware of the movie, which would increase the profit. As our target audience are mainly teenagers and adults we have used the location in a busy shopping centre which makes the incident look realistic and makes the audience involved.

I would suggest showing my thriller movie in a smaller cinema first to gain popularity within the local areas and see whether the movie is successful enough to make it to larger cinema like Vue and Cineworld.

If the movie was only successful on smaller cinema and private cinemas then a DVD would be released after a month of the release of the movie after it has been shown at the cinema for a week or two. However, if the movie was successful at larger cinemas then the DVD would be produced after 2-3 months after the film has been in cinema for a few weeks.
