Evaluation: part 3 Media institutions that might distribute our product and why.

There are two possible distributors for our film: Universal and Revolver entertainment I decided this as they distributed crime drama films such as Green street, Adulthood, and Kidulthood meaning that they would be used to working with these sorts of films and the target market we are attempting to reach.

Universal:

we decided to use universal studios as a distributor as the studio distributes many crime drama films such as green street and illegal tender while researching i discovered that the films that they distribute have a similar budget to ours which was in the £7 million mark.

We also decided to use Universal as most of the films they distributed have similar conventions to ours, with crime, guns,revenge and betrayal being the main similarities, from what i researched on IMDB Universal's budget for films range from vary small $8 million mark with films such as  illegal tender to  $135 million for films like Miami vice these are all crime drama films showing that universal has experience distributing crime drama films, universal would also be a good distributor as we could also release our film In the US.

Revolver entertainment are the creators of several crime drama films such as Kidulthood, Adulthood and Dead man running  these are all small budget films with Kidulthood only having a budget of £600,000 and Dead man running at £5 million meaning that our film would probably be distributed by revolver and looking at the gross profit we stand to make a possible total of about £410,250 judging by dead man running's total gross.

After looking at both options we feel that universal would be the best option they are a high profile distributor allowing us to make the most profit and also because Universal makes films aimed at our target market.
