Evaluation Tast 3: 'What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?'

I would describe our media product as a political thriller featuring a high level of action. The image that it gives off is one of an American/Hollywood film working with a mid-budget, however I would also say that despite this fact our thriller would fit well with Working Tile Films. Working Title films is still a British based production company that was bought out by Universal Studios around 15 years ago.

My reasoning behind this is simple as I feel that even though our product has many Hollywood elements to it, there is still a British feel to it on top of the main image. Working Title Films is a mid-budget British film production company that is now a subsiduary of Universal Studios, and has recently made Hollywood financed films such as 'I give it a year', 'Nanny Mcphee', 'The Theory of Everything', 'About Time' and 'Rush'. These films are all British, they have all been financed by American companies which gives Working Tile the money to create a high standard production for their British target audience, but could still be succesfull in both the UK and US.

If our film had a high budget then we would add a lot of CGI to create a more visually entertaining thriller, but we would do this to a certai amount in order to retain the political image to it. When it comes to distribution our film could be advertised through Social Media, Flash Mobs, Websites, Billboards and Trailers to provide wide spread talk about our product and set it up so that it has high anticipation from people both at home and abroad. In the exhibition stage of our thriller, I would expect it to do well in the box office with an averagely succesfull opening weekend. When the cinema viewing has ended then we would put exclusive editions of the movie on places like NetFlix and NowTV and following that we would take it to DVD with a special features disk with interactive games, special effects, interviews from the Cast and Crew, deleted scenes and so on.
