What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
A media institution is a company which promotes different types of media products such as TV programmes or films. They are able to do this by producing things such as posters and adverts, as well as doing the rounds on different channels where a host would ask question relevant to the film or actors. These different promotional things are done to draw a bigger audience to the film which will allow for a bigger profit for the film as more people are paying to see it etc. examples of institutions are MGM, Paramount and 20th century Fox.
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM)
MGM is an American media company founded in 1924 and ever since have produced blockbuster thriller films such as “Original Sin” and “Gaslight”, as they have worked with thriller films before they may be interested in developing a film like ours. MGM mainly work with mainstream films so if our film was to be big budget and have Hollywood A-list actors in it, they would be interested. MGM work in nearly every genre possible, so developing a thriller film would be no problem for them.
Lionsgate
Founded in 1997, this institution would be interested in developing our film as they already produce around 60 thriller films each year. They have produced some of the best Thriller films in recent years such as “Batman-The Dark Knight” and “Limitless”. Lionsgate would most certainly be interested in distributing our film as they specialize in thriller films, and our film fits the bill for them. Lionsgate mainly work with mainstream films, if our film was actually real it would have a bid budget and hollywood actors so it would suit their type institution.
