Evaluation Question 3

What Kind of Media Institution Might Distribute Your Media Product and Why?

A media institution is a company that owns numerous companies in various mass media; i.e. television, radio, publishing, motion picture, and the Internet. A media institution that would distribute my film would be one that deals with films and also subjects within my media product.
My media product would be distributed by a media institution that distributes similar products on similar topics to me. The UK Film Council is a media institution that would distribute my media product. The UK Film Council (UKFC) was a non-departmental public body set up in 2000 to develop and promote the film industry in the UK.
The reason why I would choose this media institution or one similar to this is because it has distributed many media products like mine. For example, it has distributed many British dramas about lives in Britain before such as Harry Brown, Tyrannosaur and bullet boy. All these are quite gritty British dramas about the lives of individuals in real life Britain; like my media product. The UK Film Council has also produced and distributed many films about teenagers/youth before such as Submarine and Attack the Block. Attack the Block in particular, despite being a comedy/horror film showed a very similar social group of youth that I am. All this makes the UK Film Council familiar with my sort of media product and its genre/topic.

Furthermore, UK Film Council is quite a big company therefore having my film distributed by them will allow me quite a large audience to access and watch my film. Also the UK Film Council is known for specifically distributing non-mainstream UK films and this is what I believe my media product to be. The UK Film Council also fund various film organisations; such as First Light and FILMCLUB, that encourage younger people to get into films whether it be watching or making them. The UK Film Council also part-funded the British Film Institute which champions moving image culture, education and cinema heritage to benefit as wide an audience as possible and aims to deepen and encourage public debate about film. All of this makes me want them to distribute my media product as getting young people into film is something I really want to encourage because being a young person myself its something I am very into and want to get others of my age into. Therefore, any media institution promoting this is one I would want to distribute my media product.
