What institution might distribute my media product


Fox searchlight would produce and distribute my film because it fits in with their ethos of making low (by Hollywood standard) budget thrillers.It has an interesting plot, action and beautiful camera shots. It makes thrillers and it is also interested in low budget films and first time directors. Fox searchlight has produced The Black Swan by Darren Aronofsky he had previously made independent films such as requiem for a dream and pii. It would make money at the box office asit is aimed at a mainstream audience so it will attract a large audience and so many people will want to go and see it. Fox searchlight is owned by the conglomerate 20th century Fox it is their independent arm designed to make commercially viable independent films because they are owned by a conglomerate it is easer to distribute the films and get them to their audience. Although I wouldn’t imagine our film would be a success on the same scale as a high concept film by having an attractive female actress in it the commercially viable plot and action sequences I definitely feel that Fox searchlight could help it find it’s audience. Fox searchlight has also recently produced a film called Shame by second time director Steve Mc Queen. It talks about a sexually deviant person. Although the subject is unpleasant Fox searchlight has managed to find it a larger audience then a British film company would have. This is why I think Fox searchlight would be the perfect producer for my thriller.
