Evaluation Question 3



“What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?”

in the film industry there are three major corporations that control most of it such as universal, and Colombia which are the main studios. they provide funding and links with the cinemas that want to show their films in the cinemas. Also these big companies have the funding and rive to get there films global attention as they will also have the best cameras and actors and directors which obviously doesn't allow amateur films like mine get a headway in wanting a multitude of viewers to see what I have produced. The only film that ha a low budget from my research was 28 days later and all the info you need from that film including budget profit margin and rating is on my IMdB blog.

28 Days Later - was produced by FOX which is a less well known company in the film industry but does hold the rights to some marvel characters such as the fantastic four. Fox and I quote for this film wanted 'a director that can change the way people see post apocalyptic films and also they wanted to focus more on the storyline than get a big budget actor which can be seen in 'The Book of Eli' and 'I am Legend' both had incredible actors in Will Smith and Denzel Washington but am legend had the biggest budget and seemingly spent it all the CGI zombies rather than the production of it as '28 Days Later' used make up and real actors for there films adding real authenticity to it and captured the audience more which gives it the well deserved 5 star rating.



Fr an amateur film to be seen, they will have to go and show their film on social media platforms such as Facebook, YouTube and Twitter t help gather that attention from the audience and give them a platform to take it t the next level and all of these media sites can do this however if you really want to be seen then Nottingham for reference, do amateur film festivals where you showcase a miniature fil you have made and then you can get rewards and prizes for it including scholarships to film colleges and universities. This provides more of a solid platform in how to develop more films and also these companies hand out cash checks so that it provides you with more of a budget for your next film. Along with this they project your film to around 500 people who will also give you feedback on what they thought so that you know how to change a film into what the audience want so you can gain more of a following.
