1. What kind of media institution
might distribute your media
product and why?
Kiera Brown

3. Production company
A production company
essentially helps to create the
film- it assists in the budgeting,
scheduling, scripting, casting
and more. The company
usually looks over the film from
when it’s just an idea to the
completion. They are
responsible for finding a
director and the majority of
acting talent required. My
production logo is very eye
catching so therefore grabs
peoples attention. I have
typically used one image in the
middle of my logo so that it

4. Film distribution
A film distributor is a company or
individual responsible for the
marketing of a film. The distributor
may set the release date of a film
and the method by which a film is
to be exhibited or made available
for viewing. A distributor may do
this directly, if the distributor owns
the theaters or film distribution
networks, or through theatrical
exhibitors and other sub-
distributors. A limited distributor
may deal only with particular
products, such as DVDs or Blu-
ray, or may act in a particular

5. Momentum pictures
The film distribution company that
I would use for my film would be
Momentum Pictures. I have
chosen to this company in
particular because they have
previously distributed other films
in the horror genre that have
made a lot of money. Some of
the films that they have
distributed in the same genre as
my film are, Sinister, The Woman
in Black, House at the End of the
Street and Grindhouse.

6. Funding
All films are funded by different
ways. My film will be funded by the
BFI. The BFI was founded in 1933.
They are a charity governed by a
Royal Charter. They combine
cultural, creative and industrial
roles, bringing together the BFI
National Archive and BFI Reuben
Library, film distribution, exhibition
at BFI Southbank and BFI IMAX,
publishing and festivals. They
award Lottery funding to film
production, distribution, education,
audience development and market
intelligence and research.

7. Film Titles
I have added in titles to my
film opening as it is a typical
generic convention of any
genre film. No matter what
genre the film is you will
definitely see titles in the film
opening. Film titles are there
to inform the audience about
who was involved in the
production and distribution
stages of that film. I have
presented the titles in my film
opening by using a black
background with red and
white writing over the top.

8. Influential films
There have been many different
films that have influenced in the
production of my horror films.
One of the main films that
played a major role in
influencing my film is ‘Orphan.’ I
have used their idea of using a
young girl but changing the fact
she will be the victim in my film
not the villain. I have also used
their costume ideas. I have
dressed my victim in similar
clothes the girl in Orphan would
wear at night time.
