How did your research into institutions responsible for the production and regulation of the media influence your production work?

We researched similar film genres to see who was the distributor, the gambling film '21' used Columbia Pictures to distribute their film whilst '13 Tzameti' was distributed by Palm Pictures, a much smaller company who focus on innovative film. Our film isn't similar to many Hollywood blockbusters so would most likely use a smaller production company for distribution. Our film is quite artistic with lighting effects, stop-time shots and the breach of the fourth wall so it is not conventional, therefore a smaller innovative distributor or independent company would be appropriate.

However the film 'RocknRolla' shares many similarities with our film in terms of themes and cinematography thus the production company 'Dark Castle Entertainment' an up and coming company only established in 1999 that is most notable for the horror genre but is broadening its view. An aspiring company like this that is producing stylistic films such as RocknRolla would suit our film well. In addition the distributor of Warner Bro. would be ideal as it reaches a wide demographic maximising the chance for profit.
