Film Distribution

Earlier on in our research we looked into three possible media institutions that could distribute our film. We looked into Twisted Pictures, New Line Cinema and Platinum Dunes.
We decided to use Twisted pictures is synonymous with the horror franchise Saw, therefore it would be perfect to distribute our film as if we wanted to branch out and make a franchise of successful horror films we could, as this company has the experience. To download this onto our film during editing, we found a clip of the Twisted Pictures intro on Youtube and converted it into a format that would be comaptible with iMovie and the computer and then added it to our film.This is what we used:

We also decided to use New Line Cinema, this film comapany is more mainstream but has done a horror franchise, like Twisted pictures,called  A Nightmare On Elmstreet. Both companies are perfect to distribute our film. New Line Cinema is more mainstream than Twisted Pictures so will be able to ensure our film is gieven the best possible coverage. We used a clip from Youtube like this:


Upon revisal we decided not to use Plantinum Dunes because we thought three Intros would take up too much space in our opening but that wasnt the only reason. The company was founded in 2001, fairly recent, we would prefer a company that has more history to it, as a more experienced company. The horror films they have produced has been to a high standard but after much deliberation we decided to stick with Twisted Pictures and New Line Cinema.
