Question Three: What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

Though in my Institutional Research I outlined Miramax as a potential distributor/producer of my film, i have decided that the best media institution to distribute my product would be Dimension Films. This is as they have and continue to produce many horror movies, low budget or high, for example they are responsible for the production and distribution of the Scream Films and Hellraiser films, which have gone on make millions combined.  They also have a long history of introducing "forgein films" to the american market, such as Wolf Creek (Australia) and Shuang  Long Hui (Hong Kong) and this would be key in achieving the widespread audience of my film. The Weinstein Company would also produce the film as they are under the same branch as Dimension Films and has provided the money for production for British films such as Nowhere Boy.

My film has also kept within the guidlines of the British Board of Film Classifications, as it fits perfectly within the certification of a 15. My film also includes elements of gore without moving into sadistic killings, which also pigeon holes it in a 15 certificate. There is also a repetition of what is considered as "swear words" of which brings the classification above a twelve.
