What kind of media institution
might distribute your media
product and why?
By Dominika Tkacova
The genre of my film is Psychological
Thriller. I am going to be looking at other
Psychological Thrillers, which I have
analyzed in my preliminary task, to find out
what kind of media institution might
distribute my product.
The media institution that distributes Inception is
mainly Warner Bros. They distribute the product both
theatrically and on DVD. There are other distributors who distribute the product
in some countries. For example, Film1 distributes the film in Netherlands but
this is only limited.
Side Effects, compared to Inception, has many different
distributors for different countries. In the UK, the media institutions that distribute it on DVD are Entertainment One and
Universal Studios Home Entertainment. Tanweer Films
distributes the film in many Asian countries, both theatrically
and on DVD.
Black Swan is distributed by Fox Searchlight. Darren
Aronofsky’s other film called ‘The Wrestler’ was also distributed by the same media institution. Black
Swan only has one distributor which is different
to the other films I have looked at.
I think my media product would probably be distributed by Entertainment One like the film ‘Side Effects’. This media distributor is not as big as Warner Bros but it is still a very successful distributor. Entertainment One distributes in United States, Canada, the UK, Ireland, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Australia and New Zealand and that is mainly where we want our product to be distributed to. I don’t believe that our product would be worldwide because it is not as professional as ‘Inception’ or other very successful film so I think Entertainment One is a very realistic idea as they would probably distribute our product.
So what media institution would probably distribute my product?
