Institution

Institutions that might distribute our film: 

1) Revolver Entertainment - This is one of the UK leading 'All Rights' independents, multi-award winning film distributor and production company that continues to shake up the industry with a unique, innovative approach to managing releases. It was founded in 1997, the company has operations in both London and Los Angeles. In the past 10 years Revolver's independent spirit and flair has been awarded with 18 of the industry's top awards for marketing excellence. 

I have chosen this institution as one of our potential distribution company because it has produced lots of successful low budget films such as kidulthood and Ill Manors. Revolver's films are available through a multitude of platforms in addition to physical DVDs and the company has deals in place with Apple's iTunes, X-Box, Netflix and Amazon. The company also strives to ensure it maximises TV rights to all of its films through its strong relationships with numerous broadcast networks. This means that our film can appeal to people who would rather stay at home to watch and it is also a very effective method to increase our profit. 

By using social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter and others; it also provide a 'free' marketing service for our film. This can target our ideal audience (15-25) directly as most of them spend most of their time on social networking sites nowadays. 

2) Warner Bros - An American producer of film, television, and music entertainment. It is one of the major film studios, it is a subsidiary of Time Warner, with its headquarters in Burbank, California (NY). Warner Bros is a member of the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). They have distributed a lot of famous films and is one of the well known high budget film distributor. For example, Harry Potter, Hobbit, Batman, Man of Steel and many more. 

They would be a great distributor because the company itself is well known and having them to distributing the film will make the film popular and seem high budget to audience although it may not necessarily be a high budget film. Therefore it will also increase our profit/box office hugely. However since we are low budget producers, there isn't much chance of them distributing our film so it is best sticking with an UK distributor.
