Question 3 - What kind of media institute might distribute your media product and why?

The production company usually oversees the film from when it’s just an idea to a finished product; this could include the budgeting, scheduling, scripting, casting and more. They are responsible for finding a director and the majority of acting talent required. However they are also responsible if anything were to go wrong on the film, for example and actor being injured or property being damaged.

 

I feel that our thriller should be produced and distributed by Paramount Pictures because of their amount of thrillers they have distributed such as Shutter Island and Mission Impossible II. This would mean that our thriller is distributed worldwide. Another reason that I think Paramount Pictures would be good to distribute our thriller is because it already has experience in producing, advertising and marketing big thrillers such as Shutter Island and Mission Impossible II. To date, Paramount Pictures is ranked as one of the largest and top grossing movie studios. Being based in America, Paramount Pictures were able to distribute their films to a larger audience. This meant that the films were seen on a larger scale and meant in the films being sent worldwide.

Both MTV and Nickelodeon Films are owned by Paramount Pictures which are both multimillion dollar companies and I think with Paramount Pictures being as big as it is, makes it the perfect company to distribute our production.  

 

Paramount Pictures have distributed Shutter Island; Shutter Island is a physiological thriller starring Leonardo Di Caprio as Teddy Daniels, a U.S.marshal, who is assigned to find a patient that has escaped from the remote shutter island, a mental institute for only the worst patients. I would like to think that we could compare our production to Shutter Island because of the physiological thriller elements that both productions share. With the knowledge that Paramount Pictures have applied to Shuttle Island I feel they could make The Lost Production into a success.
