WHAT KIND OF MEDIA INSTITUTION MIGHT
DISTRIBUTE YOUR MEDIA PRODUCT AND WHY?
EVALUATION Q3
Distribution Company (Paramount pictures)
The institution we used for our opening title
sequence we used Paramount Pictures. This is
because the institution is consistently ranked
as one of the largest (top-grossing) film
studios.We thought the company links with
other thriller films can make our own thriller film a
success. The film having distributed many
mainstream thriller films known to a wide range
of audiences can only increase our audience.
Some of the thriller films Paramount Pictures
have distributed:
World War Z (20013)
Paranormal Activity 2007
Mission Impossible (2011)
Also Psycho by (Alfred Hitchcock, 1960) the film
that inspired the making of our film I SPY.
The institution was founded in 1912.
Mainstream films points
Known Actors/Producers
The Actors are mostly likely to be known to all audiences. The directors and
producers will mostly be familiar to the audiences because of their previous films.
The advertisement through social media and viral advertisement can increase a
high number of audience to see the film. In our opening title sequence we used
our group mates and organised roles to who is producing, acting and directing.
High Budgeted
The budget of the props and wages of the actors is mostly high budget which is
over £1 million. The set design will have some major changes due to the film having
a higher budget . The props will be able to be of top quality as we can afford to
provide this in our budget.
Familiar locations
This means there will be higher demands for the familiar locations but that doesn’t
really affect us. The familiar location like cities and resorts can be a anywhere we
like as we have the luxury of a high budget.
maximum special effects
The special effects can also effect the budget used on creating the film but we can
freely use these although for our opening title sequence we didn’t really include
any.
ADVERTISING
The advertising of a mainstream film can be done in many ways and
by different distributors. Mainstream films do their advertisements
on posters and advertising on TV. The other way to advertise is
usually done by the word of mouth and this is not effective to
different audiences and may be realised to reach a small specific
audience based on the films genre or stars. I SPY will be advertised
on billboards and posters such as bus stops and magazines, on buses
or just around different cities, capitals and towns.
Some festivals may advertise mainstream films in order to raise the
audiences.
DVD and TV releases will be advertised for the mainstream film and
would gross in more money from the DVD sales. Independent films
will realise their films through DVD and TV sales, but wouldn’t have
as much publicity then a mainstream would, for the certain
attributes that the mainstream film had, such as an award winning
the academy awards for the best director or popular actor.
