1. What kind of media institution might
distribute your media product and
why?
2. First of all my film is a low budget film that will need to have extra funding to
be able to get distributed. My own production company is called double a
productions. However going into mass distribution which can be
accomplished as the storyline has the potential to really attract many
different production companies and this media product can attract a very
large audience, will mean that I need to be able to sell my product to a big
media institution preferably one from the big 6. This will allow for a very good
distribution of my media product to be done.
I believe that the media institution that will distribute my media product is
Paramount pictures. Firstly because it is not known to distribute many science
fiction films and as the science fiction genre is becoming more and more
popular it will be looking into making an investment into a film with the
science fiction genre.
However through research I have found that science fiction films are being
made with very similar storylines and plots, that were once in demand but
now due to the vast amounts of science fiction films being created with the
same storyline the demand has gone down as people and media institutions
want something new.
3. This is where my media product comes in. It is a new style of science fiction
that has been made combining the detective/mystery genre and created with
a whole new storyline. It involves a main character that is an alien which does
not really happen or has not happened at all. Plots like this will catch the
attention of audiences as they want to see something different and not the
same old science fiction where aliens come to invade the earth and the
humans prevent them from doing so.
If there is a high demand from audiences Paramount pictures will see how big
of an investment this can be and through mass distribution the amount of
profit that can be generated will make them need to distribute my film.
Therefore Paramount pictures is the best media institution to distribute my
film as there will be huge benefits for their company and my media
production company.
