Who would distribute my media product and why?
Well because I am a unknown director with an unknown cast and a very low budget there is no way a big cinema would ever be showcasing my product because it just doesn't have any of those thing which all the major films at the moment have. For example it isn't shot in HD and the set is all inside my own house. I also made it with the idea in mind of making people think and challenging the view points they have on things. This could make it quite controversial so this makes it even less likely for them to showcase the film as they wouldn't want to offend people. Most people that go to watch a film also don't want to have to watch something that makes them think about what they are doing in their own life and because that the big cinemas such as odeon attract these people they are less likely to show it.
However smaller cinemas such as "cinema city" are more likely to show case my film as they show more controversial and smaller films made on a lower budget. Their customers are more willing to see something that makes them think about their lives and that challenges the way they think. This makes them more likely to show it.
Lovefilm is a company that post people films to watch and will post another off their wish list when they return the one they have at a monthly charge. Lovefilm has a huge range of films, going from the big Hollywood hits to small films that never made it to the big screen. Because they have as many films as they can to try to please their customers it is possible they would distribute mine.
I could also use youtube because anyone can upload whatever videos they choose to do. Youtube is a media institution but unless I become a partner I won't make any money from my film.
