QUESTION 3:

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

BLACKOUT RELEASE:

There would be a big international release with a premiere in London as the film is set in London... 

The film would be released into all the big cinema chains such as Odeon, Cineworld and Vue and many copies would be made to ensure the film can be screened in all the big multiplexes...

This kind of release is done a lot with big action films  such as James Bond, Die Hard, and the Bourne Trilogy to name just a few. We are trying to reach a mass audience of big cinema goers, are main target audience being 20 year old - middle aged men, with a secondary audience of teenage boys!


AVATAR is an example of a huge high-budget film with a international release - it was very successful due to huge marketing campaigns and getting the film into all the big multiplexes...

Institutions:

Our production company, AX productions, is an international company making big high budget films for a mass audience. They make mainly action/adventure/thriller films so would naturally have a bigger male audience then female. They could be compared to the likes of Sony Pictures, who make a huge number of successful films.

Our global distributor, Focus Entertainment, would also be a big mainstream distributor, perhaps like Sony Entertainment or 20th Century FOX and would distribute our film worldwide. 

Infinite Pictures are our UK distributors and could be compared to the likes of Icon.
