What kind of media institution would distribute your media product and why?

After doing some research on The strangers, which was one of our films we chosen to analyze, we found that the main production company for this film was Rogue Pictures and this was also one of their many distributors. As this is a relatively large company who have had involvement in many larger budgeted films such as The Strangers, unfortunately they will not be willing to disribute our film as our film is a low budgeted British film with all its conventions also being British. However we have researched some British distributers that specializes in low budget British films, and found that Optimum Releasing, which is a film distributor which is best known for its anime releases will be the most suitable in distributing our media production as they have previously distibuted films such as The Decent and Eden Lake which are also low budgeted British Horror/Thriller films.

Optimum was acquired by Studio Canal which is a French company in 2006


Optimum was aquired by studio canal which is a french based disributing company.

Putting our production under this professional distributer will enable our film to be viewed by wider audiences.






Pathe is another French company which could also be a possible distributor for our media production as they have also produced films simalarly to ours such as The Descent.
