Question 3 - what kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?


A production company for a film provides the money and sets the budget for the film. They may also decide upon the director and also actors can be hired. Budget often makes decisions possible or impossible. A lot budget film may not be able to film in a remote location as they won't be able to fund enough money to get there. The production companies often come attached with there own characters, directors, photographers and film editors.
         
A distribution company is responsible for releasing films to the general public, either theatrically or home viewing. Shows the film to prospective buyers representing the theaters. It also secures a written contract deciding on the amount of tickets and copies of the film to be sold. The gross ticket sale will be paid to the distributors after first deduction, this is called a house allowance.
      

20th Century Fox is the distribution company we have decided to use to get our film out to the world. We have chosen this company from it reputation over the years and its ability to sell millions of tickets and distributes thousands of films world wide. We feel we will benefit from this distribution company. We are also going to distribute our film by uploading out movie trailer to 20th century fox's YouTube channel, which house over a million subscribers world wide. This will give the audience a sneak peak as to what our film is about and it will also make the eager to watch more and want to pay to watch the film in the cinema.

Where would the money come from to fund your film?


- We plan to fund our film through sponsors as it raising awareness of criminal activity and stereotypes all around us.
