Thriller - What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

The type of Media Institution that would be associated with our type of film would be a low budget British film production company. One that specialises within youth and young film makers in an attempt to get young people more exposure for their work. My group and I found 3 potential companies that we think would be suitable for our film.

Guerrilla Films:
Guerrilla Films have a record of distributing over 100 films. This production company is based within London. They specialise in low budget films from Britain and Ireland. There was not much information on their website so we cannot research further but we think that they would be ideal for distributing our film. They have distributed films such as Two Men Went to War (John Henderson, 2002)   http://www.guerilla-films.com/

Suitability Rating: 4

Optimum Releasing:
Optimum Releasing is a well known company that has specialises is distributing films made in the UK, for example The Last Exorcism (Daniel Stamm, 2010). This would be an ideal company as it is very professional and experienced. http://press.optimumreleasing.net/dvds.php

Suitability Rating:3

Veritgo Films:
Vertigo Films is a well know distributing company that has distributed films such as The Football Factory (Nick Love, 2004). However they don't specialise in low budget films so they wouldn't be most suitable option.

Suitability Rating: 3

I personally think the most suitable production company for myself and my groups work would be Guerrilla Films as I think it would be the most beneficial and suitable for our work as they are more involved with youth and first time film makers rather than the other two being more high budget than our film. http://www.vertigofilms.com/
