Q3) What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

When taking into consideration what film company would distribute my film, I thought that Dimension Films would be best suited. Dimension Films has distributed the film 'Scream' which is the film of which I have likened to the most with my opening sequence, therefore due to it's success with this distribution company and gives me confidence that if I were to distribute my opening sequence with Dimension I would have a successful product. This is because it is a well-known company and would be able to bring my thriller a lot of success and customers, therefore allowing making profit on this so instead of breaking even, my group and I’s hard work pays off for the better. A media institution is important to consider when distributing my thriller because without it, there wouldn’t be such a strong opportunity to allow our thriller to be successful because it wouldn’t be known. A big part of a thrillers success is due to the company that distributed it because if it is a known company with good products, people are more willing to sit and watch it because they know that stereotypically that the films released by the distributor are at a high quality and excellent standard, where as if it is a less known, less successful company then not a lot of people would go to see it as there wouldn’t be such strong advertisement and promotion around it. Therefore, due to Dimension Film’s well-known, excellent reputation for thrillers, I would have chosen this company to distribute my thriller.  Dimension Films has distributed thrillers such as all of the Scream films, The Mist, Hole and many more. These are successful thrillers with a large audience and so by having Dimension Films distribute my thriller I would gain a large backing to because the audience that usually go to watch films distributed by Dimension Films would come to watch my final product.
