This is a complex question without a straightforward answer. A film's success is usually determined by both its appeal and the resources devoted to distributing and marketing it. Here are a few key points:
- A highly appealing film is more likely to find an audience, but it still needs exposure through distribution and marketing channels to reach its potential viewers.
- Marketing and promotion help raise awareness of a film and convey what it's about, which is important for driving interest and ticket/DVD sales. This is especially true for independent films with limited budgets.
- Wider distribution through more cinemas and territories increases the chances of finding an audience. However, distribution is costly and not guaranteed to overcome lack of appeal.

Key figures like Richard Curtis and recurring actors like Hugh Grant were also important to Working Titles' popular romantic comedies that targeted female audiences.

Warp Films and Working Title Films are two British film production companies that differ in several key ways. Warp Films is more traditionally British, producing films focused on domestic stories and audiences with less American influence. Working Title has stronger ties to American partners like Universal Studios and is known for bigger-budget films that appeal more broadly. Both companies started by producing short films that led to funding for feature-length productions. However, Working Title is now a larger company better able to utilize larger budgets for effects-heavy genres like sci-fi that Warp Films typically avoids for financial reasons.Marketing the hobbit

Their blockbuster films like Wonder Woman have budgets over $300 million and profits over $700 million, allowing risks on less profitable films. In contrast, independent UK studio Belstone Pictures has much smaller $150,000 budgets, using cheaper actors, equipment, and locations. While Wonder Woman was extensively marketed and distributed worldwide, Tank 432 focused on film festivals and social media with more limited distribution and revenue.

This document discusses film distribution strategies. It explains that a distributor is responsible for releasing a film to the widest possible audience. They develop a release strategy that determines when and where the film will be shown. Distributors must secure exhibition deals with cinemas and spend money marketing the film through posters, trailers, and social media to generate interest. Large studios like Universal distribute globally and spend millions promoting major films, while independent distributors like Soda Pictures focus on more niche films with smaller budgets. The document proposes that Soda Pictures would be a good fit to distribute the independent, low-budget British film being discussed.Genre

This document discusses genres in filmmaking and how different institutions approach film production and distribution. It explains that genre is defined by form, content, and technique. It also discusses the differences between a high budget film from a major studio versus an art house or independent film. Major studios have more money to widely distribute their films, while independent films have smaller niche audiences. The document also compares the American film conglomerate Disney, which spends over $150 million on animated films like Frozen, to British institutions like Film4 that independently fund lower budget films around $9 million like Attack the Block.Question 3
Question 3Sebastian Rivett
?
The document discusses potential media institutions that could distribute a film called "Delinquent". It suggests that Film4 Productions would be the ideal distributor. Film4 Productions is a British film company owned by Channel 4 that has distributed many successful UK films. It has experience working with thriller films and distributing them internationally. Film4 could advertise "Delinquent" across Channel 4's television channels and work with a major Hollywood studio for financial backing and international distribution. The document outlines how Film4 could distribute the film online, through DVD/Blu-Ray, and in cinemas to reach wide audiences.Case studies

The document provides case studies and information about several films: Fish Tank, Ill Manors, The Hangover, and Skyfall. It includes details about directors, casts, budgets, box office figures, production and distribution companies, technological convergence aspects, and issues with national and local audiences. Cross-media promotion strategies and the impact of media ownership models (from independent to large conglomerates) on film production are also examined.Distribution among independent films
Distribution among independent filmsAlexdavies44
?
Independent films typically do not have large budgets for theatrical releases. However, some independent films are picked up by larger distribution companies and shown in theaters. For most films with budgets under $3 million, DVD distribution was once common but online viewing platforms like Netflix, iTunes, and BitTorrent are now more typical release methods.
Some independent films are able to get distribution deals by attracting audiences with popular source material or genres. Films like Room and Carol were based on famous novels while Suffragette covered a popular British history topic.
The best online distribution platforms depend on a film's budget and goals. Netflix reaches the largest audience globally but isn't ideal for prestige films seeking awards. BitTorrent and VimeoWhat kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

?
This document discusses film distribution and provides examples of major film distribution companies. It analyzes Universal Studios and Metrodome as distribution case studies, concluding that Metrodome would be the best fit for distributing their film due to its focus on smaller, UK-based releases. Marketing strategies discussed include theatrical release, home video, trailers, interviews and promotions to appeal to their target UK audience. Self-distribution is considered but rejected in favor of an experienced distribution company.Recently uploaded (20)

Developer Experience is Dead! Long Live Developer Experience!
In this keynote-style session, we¡¯ll take a detailed, granular look at the barriers to productivity developers face today and modern approaches for removing them. 10x developers may be a myth, but 10x organizations are very real, as proven by the influential study performed in the 1980s, ¡®The Coding War Games.¡¯
Right now, here in early 2025, we seem to be experiencing YAPP (Yet Another Productivity Philosophy), and that philosophy is converging on developer experience. It seems that with every new method, we invent to deliver products, whether physical or virtual, we reinvent productivity philosophies to go alongside them.
But which of these approaches works? DORA? SPACE? DevEx? What should we invest in and create urgency behind today so we don¡¯t have the same discussion again in a decade?FinTech - US Annual Funding Report - 2024.pptx

IBM Tsuyoshi Hirayama (ƽɽÒã)The Lobster
- 2. In a dystopian society, single people must find a mate within 45 days or be transformed into an animal of their choice. In order for relationships to work they acquire a common trait for example nose bleeds or a lisp. The residents at the hotel can extend their life if they can tranquilize ¡®loners¡¯ which are single people who don¡¯t abide by the rules of society and live in the forest. Hotel Manager: Now have you thought of what animal you'd like to be if you end up alone? David: Yes. A lobster. Hotel Manager: Why a lobster? David: Because lobsters live for over one hundred years, are blue-blooded like aristocrats, and stay fertile all their lives. I also like the sea very much.
- 3. Release date: October 16, 2015 (United Kingdom) Director: Yorgos Lanthimos Production company: Film4 Productions The film is co-produced by Ireland, United Kingdom, Greece, France and the Netherlands. Distrubution company: Picturehouse Entertainment (UK) Awards: British Independent Film Award for Best Supporting Actress,more Age Rating: 15 Filming Location: Dublin, Ireland Budget: $4.5 million Money made opening weekend: $190,252 (USA) (13 May 2016) Box Office: $15.7 million.
- 5. ? Posters ? They have their own website in which yo u can use to take a short quiz to see what animal you are destined to be just like in the film. ? On the website is also an official trailer and links to buy the soundtrack and DVD/Blu-ray. ? On the website is also hyperlinks to social media accounts. ? The film was widely heard about, this may have been due to having a lower budget which was mainly spent on the production of the film.
- 6. ? The film was available on DVD and Blu-ray. ? The film can be downloaded on Google play and watched on YouTube from ?2.49 ? Available to be streamed on Netflix and Amazon prime. ? Can be illegally downloaded (piracy)
- 7. The film was produced by Film4. This is a big company in the UK, however globally it isn¡¯t as known. It produces mainly British films. The film is co-produced by Ireland, United Kingdom, Greece, France and the Netherlands so this made the film more popular around the world. The film was distributed by Picturehouse Entertainment. This is also a British company. The company is known for working with famous British directors. These are all moderately small companies globally but still make successful movies. This made The lobster a smaller budget independent film.
- 8. Film4 which was the films production company worked together with other companies around the world such as: Ireland, United Kingdom, Greece, France and the Netherlands. This was beneficial as the film could make a bigger profit and also marketing was world wide therefore creating a much bigger profile for the film. The film used posters and trailers in each country, also there was a website which could be accessed in all the countries.
- 9. The film was available on DVD, Blu-ray, streaming online and download. It was shown in 2D in the cinemas, as it was a simple film with no special effects the film wouldn¡¯t have suited the 3D format. More people buy the film on DVD now as this is cheaper however decreases the money earned for the film companies.
- 10. Films are a lot more expensive to go to the see In the cinema, but with apps such as Netflix and amazon prime, etc. Films can now be watched easier, cheaper and in the comfort of the viewers homes. The Lobster is available on these sites so can be easily accessed on many devices such as mobile phones, computer and TV. Piracy also exists so films can be illegally downloaded and watched for free creating a loss in money for the film companies.
- 11. There are a lot more devices designed to watch films on. This helps for not only how the film is viewed but also how it is marketed. The film had its own website http://thelobster-movie.com/ On the website the viewer is able to take part in a questionnaire to see what animal they would be if they faced the same circumstances as in the movie. Potential viewers would have watched trailers and found out about the film through online advertising and social media on their phones, laptops, tv¡¯s etc.
