Evaluation, question 3

Evaluation, question 3

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

Even though my film is low budget and has all contributing factors and conventions of British Horror, I feel as if my media product could go international and work over in the US, the reason being for this is the fact of its narrative and story line, this issue can work/ happen in any body’s life this is the reason I believe it could be represented by a Hollywood film company. Reasons for this is that it is very similar issues that happen in the US there for making them familiar with the topic/rules of this conventional horror/thriller.

Even though the issue, narrative and plot could work over in other countries like the US, there is still the work of the cinematography that is a disadvantage, the typical Hollywood film is shot very stylised and kept clean, there are some conventions; like inside the house where my film is shot clean. However there are moments, like when outside of the house the cinematography is seen as being lower budget British stylised. We can tell this not only by the hand held shots but how the film is also shot on location and not in high budget American sets. This is one of the main reason media audiences might not get as far as being international, they simply will not like the look of it to the American audience, it simply is not attractive to them.

When I look at my media product as much more than a film it has potential to leap over into the hands of one of the big six companies like Universal, it has that sense of being  much more than just one media product and becoming a global interaction than anything else. However the question does ask about my media product; and looking at it as just a product I can only see it as getting as far as one of the big British film companies like warp-x or the British film council that would distribute my media product, the reasons for this is simply that the product is British and can mainly circle round British audiences also with these kind of film companies budgets they most likely will keep it national, which will also most likely result in making the best gross profit of my media product, the way it is distributed.
