An institution is a company that disperses a media product for audience consumption.
If given the chance to produce our film there would only be a few film companies that would help us produce and distribute it. An institution that we could use would be an independent British film company such as Film4 or Momentum.
FILM 4
- Film4 started in 1982 as Film4 Productions
- Film4 is partnered with Warp X Films where they challenge British films by creating new ones with a lower budget, with the intention of expanding the niche audience.
- It is owned and operated by Channel Four Television Cooperation that screens films.
- It's 'sister' channels include: 4seven, Channel4, E4, More4, 4Music, Heat, Kerrang!, Kiss, Magic, Smash Hits and The Box
MOMENTUM
- One of the leading independent motion picture distributors in the UK and Ireland
- Releases approximately 20 theatrical films a year, with several dtv releases.
Our budget was extremely small, we filmed in local locations, used school equipment with an unknown cast, unknown directors and the use of our own props and costumes which meant that these two film companies would be the best for producing and distributing our film. These institutions are also well known throughout the UK so this would be a good selling point when trying to expand viewer ratings by using their inherited audience.
