Evaluation: What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

When think about who would be the distributor for my film I looked at major and independent labels. I would say that my film would be distributed by an independent company this is because the when researching distribution I found that labels such as MGM and Columbia picture do have big budgets but they are not very forgiving with the storyline as they don't take risks with unique films which is the type of film I am putting forward. The Independent company may not have the largest of audiences behind them but many recent films have be from independent companies. The distribution would be mainly releasing films which are in the crime genre this would allow my film to be for the audiences which would like films which are made by new talent and maybe not the very similar stories which are released by the the major companies every time because they know that audiences will want to see them but I think that the more different the film is the better it is for the audience so then they are engaged in the storyline which is offered to them. One example of a Independent label is Guerilla films because they aim their films at a more niche audience but this allows them to have a unique take on the whole of their catalogue. Having looked at these different types of distribution company has allowed me to have more idea of how my film worked together especially the opening. I have made my own distribution company as I feel this would allow my product to work best in its very own distribution company as they would be a company which would only release films from the crime genre.
