Group work Institution

The work we did into the film industry and distribution was used in our first pitches we gave as groups. The genre we were given was a high budget comedy therefore we researched a lot into the most well known distribution companies.

We managed to create a well rounded idea that fitted the stereotypes of the genre but when it came to choosing the well known actors that would have been in a high budget film, we could have chosen better.

As for the distribution company we chose Entertainment Film Distributors:


We chose it as it was well known for the most recent Inbetweeners film as well as previous comedy films such as over her dead body. The company is also well known for promoting films of various genres the biggest film it has been involved in is The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. As well as this it is also a British company which was essential.

Distribution

To create a film there is a few steps which must be completed:

1. Pre Production
2. Production
3. Post Production
4. Distribution

Distribution is the final stage of film production, disrbuting is a vital role as its main aim is to inform the audience and grab their attention; they will find a unique selling point (USP) inorder to have a successful sale.



A well known distributor is Warner Brothers, there have been around for 90 years, being founded in 1923 by the Warner Brothers. The logo which the company have is very simple and just gets to the point, its a WB in a shield.

The company have distributed many famous films which have been sucessful like; Slumdog Millionaire, Sherlock Holmes and many more.
