What is distribution?
Film distribution is the process of making a movie available for viewing by an audience.
A distributor is an individual or organisation who will represent your film at festivals and markets around the world and who will attempt to sell it to television and other company's that show films.
How is a film distributed;
Film is produced by a production company, then its sent of to a distributer such as Dream works. Then the distributers sells the film on e.g. through downloading websites, TV, Cinemas, DVD ETC.
Examples of distribution company's
Our film
The sort of film opening sequence that we has produced is a low budget British film. Our film is a Thriller and our production company is called Light Bulb productions. As our production company is not very well known big distribution company's might not want to take a risk.
So it would probably be through small British film distributers. But they can only distribute though;
Social Network
Downloads
Company website
Youtube
Appealing to the UK audience
I think our film is going to appeal to a wide range of people in the UK, though we are targeting young women aged 18-24, many people that dont fit this demographic will also be keen to see this film as there was also high numbers of people of all ages going to see Thrillers. As it appeals to a wide demographic I think this would help us with many distributers as they will have a lot of people they can sell it to.
Marketing strategies, release strategies and exhibition options

Marketing is very important because its a crowded and competitive market for film . Other strategies; Social Networking and Film Festivals.
Self distributions
Advantages
Have full control and rights over your film, giving you the choice over where your film is shown.
You don't have to give a cut of the money made from any sales of your film to a distributor.
Disadvantages
Can be very time consuming chasing buyers and sales and filling in paperwork.
Could limit your options for sales as distributors have established relationships with buyers and many buyers may only be interested in packages of films.
Could be not signing away rights to your film that'll prevent you from showing it elsewhere.
