What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
The distribution of films include indie films and inderpendant film makers. An indie movie is an independently produced film with a low budget. The producer usually has to finance the movie and invest in the film. The director usually agrees to work for free or for a minimal charge, but sometimes offers to work for a percentage of the films profit, if the film produces any profits. The writers, production staff and sctors usually agree to work for a minimal too.
Indie films usually benefit from remaining independent, because many of the themes explored in movies industrial movies wouldn't be appealing to the mass audience for industrial films. An indie film director and their crew usually creates the film to enjoy the artistic measures.
Industrial films go straight into the cinemas but indie movies have more of a "path" to follow. They usually take time to be completed, sometimes up to seven years with post -production work. A finished indie movie may be entered into competitions and film festivals. Success in such festivals can cause the movie to be noticed by major distributors. If a film is successfully picked up by a studio or distributor, it may actually be seen on thousands of screens and the producers may actually recoup their initial investments.
An inderpendent film is one that is made out of the conventional studio system.However inderpendent films aren't just made outside of the studio system, hey can be made in opposition to the studio system. Standing against the status quo, inderpendent films help to change it. Sometimes inderpendent films actually features mainstream actors! Sometimes writers and directors too, who want smaller projects for personal interests. Mainstream actors or directors may also agree to work on a movie as a personal favor to a friend just starting out in the business or as a diversion from the usual roles Hollywood may offer them. In the film world I am an inderpendant film maker, this is because I have created my thriller opening without an establised studio.
I feel like I have followed the indie film makers artistic methods with my opening credits, which have been hand made, out of paper and made into a stop motion video.

Indie film makers need to spread their film around, this is mainly done via YouTube. I, as an inderpendant film maker would sue YouTube to share my video, this would hopefully make my thriller opening become popular through people liking and sharing it with friends. Many people like to search YouTube, and would hopefully come across my video and enjoy it, and attracting a larger audience.
My media project could also be spread around by using Viral Promotion, this would cause a huge promotion. Viral promotion would cause a huge hit and cause my thriller opening to be very popular.
My media project could also be spread around by the word of the mouth through friends, however this would be difficult to do so. It would give people an option to watch my thriller opening rather than being all over the internet pesuading people to watch it.

Film festivals are the cause for many indie films to be spotted at, this is because of Hollywood and industrial film agents are there to spot any talent. the agents are looking for anything new and different, making film festivals popular. Media coverage is always big at a film festival and will be reviewed.
Film festivals that are big in the Uk are London film festivals and Edinbrough. There are many film festivals all over the world which attract a huge audience and agents looking for new talent.
To distribute my film I would use the Sundance festival to do so. This is because it is in the USA, that means that my film would become international straight away, with little leg work. By distributing my film at the Sundance festival, there would be more of a cahnce of being spotted mainly due to the fact that there would be more Hollywood agents. The Sundance festival is a very famous festival which many people go to, meaning that more people will see my film.

Another way to distribute my film would be looking around the United Kingdom. Distributers like the BBC would mean that my film would become popular amongst the United Kingdom, and I would get a large audience in the United Kingdom. If my film was sucsseful in the United Kingdom I would look for a international film distributer to try and acheive the largest audience possible.
Another way to distribute my media project would be to use an indie film distributor. Indie film distibutors are websites set for indie and inderpendant films, perfect for films like mine. It allows a large amount of people to watch and post inderpendant films. Because it is aimed at the inderpendant film market it would be perfect to sahre my media project on. My thriller opening may not be seen and become popular at first due to the large amount of compertition from other indie film makers.
To help spread the word of my thriller opening would be by using international streamers. This form of film distribution is most affective, after YouTube. This is because of the huge amount of users, which are all interested in films and want to watch them. this means that using international streamers would cause my film to become popular and proffesionaly distributed. These interantional streamers are popular with indie film makers, these international streamers include Loveilm and Netflixs. These compaines would hopefully make my film sucessful and international for other audiences.
To distribute my film through streamers I would use Netfix, this is because it is the biggest and most well know streamer. Netflix is also international and would be watched by more people and be distributed easiler. Netflix is more well known than Lovefilm, which is only based in the United Kingdom. Netflix can be accessed throught any device, which is easier for people which will make my film more watched, than if it was on Lovefilm.

Another useful way to distribute my film would be by using social networking sites, social networking sites have proved very useful for me in the past, helping to get survey results and roughcut feedback. Socail networking sites are very popular, especially Facebook and Twitter. Socail networking sites spread news fast and effectivly causing a quick result. This is why they would be useful to spread my video.
