(Question 3) What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

Our production company.


When deciding on a name and logo for our production company we thought we should keep it quite simple. Something an audience would remember and recognise.
We found it quite hard to come up with a name for the company and could not all agree on anything. In the end, we were looking through fonts for our titles and found one called Oakwood. We decided this would be a good name for our production company and all agreed. 
So from the name, we thought it only sensible to have the logo as an oak tree. There for we drew on out on the mac and adjusted colours and lines to make it a bit more interesting. 
When deciding on the text we went for a red as it stands out and reflects the fact it is a thriller film quite nicely. Here is our finish design: 

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

When we were deciding on a distribution company, we looked at some popular thriller films and who their distributors were. We found a lot of possibilities including; 


Lionsgate    

who have distributed films such as; 

  - Blood Red Earth
  - Saw
  - See No Evil
  - American Psycho 

20th Century Fox

Who have distributed films such as;


  - x-men
  - Avatar
  - Planet of the apes




Momentum Pictures

Momentum Pictures is a very popular distributer to thriller films. In the past they have distributed films including;

- Insidious 

- Lost in Translation 

- The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

- The Woman In Black

- Haywire 

- Shame

We have chosen Momentum Pictures as our distributer as we think that our film fits into the same genre of films they have previously distributed. Also we think that being an English and well know distribution company it may fit nicely with our project. Although it is quite a big, popular, wide ranged distribution company we think that it would be the best option for us and our film.
