Evaluation 3

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

As our film 'Dead End' is a British Social Realism Drama, aimed at a British audience, I think that the media institution that might produce and fund our film would be, Channel 4 or Film4, as these institutions produce films like ours, such as. This Is England, Trainspotting, Fish Tank, Four Lions. Although to get these films into the cinemas, the companies have to use distributors like Warp Films, whom do infact distribute

• This Is England
• Four Lions
• Subamrine
• Paradise Lost

I think it would fit into Warp Films because our film 'Dead 'End' obviously isn't a high budget film, as Warp Films distribute the lower budget films. I would recommend our film production to be in the Warp company because 'Dead End' is a little rough and gritty, like This Is England.. It's not going to be in the same league as the big budget films like Avatar, this is because companies like 20th Century Fox or Univeral produce and distribute to a much wider audience, they are far more successful and they make their films out more world wide to the public and therefore they have bigger success, as they can afford to do this, therefore they can spend more money on their films and publish it to a wider range, and then this would lead to more profit, our film production might not be as successful in this company, as there isn't glitz and glamour and the Hollywood effect like the films that produce have, with big effects and technologies.
