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

I believe that I would like to choose the company 20th Century Fox to distribute my thriller opening. This is because it is a fairly large company that is well known by most of the world. They have also done films like ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ and the ‘Happening’, both of which are thriller films that have the same kind of feel to out own opening. Though they are located mostly in the USA they have significant pull in the UK also.
This would unlikely however as such a big company would be unlikely to take on such a low budget production such as ours. This leads me to believe that we would be more likely to get success from a smaller company such as an indie. When I explored the companies I found a British company called Coffee Films that seem to create thriller films like the one we did along with others like it. They would be more likely to take our project on and, although we wouldn’t receive as much press as with twentieth century fox it would still get us some audience that like watching independent cinema.
