Possible Film DistributorBY ELLIOT FITZPATRICK

Our Film – 7 minutes

Our short film is low budget meaning we will need an independent film distributor. This is because they are cheaper and work with small films like ours.

Due to the film being so short and being of an unpopular style/genre an independent film distributor would be beneficial as big well known distributors will most likely decline our film. This is because of the narrow demographic our film will attract.

Shorts International/Shorts TV

For our short film I feel that Shorts TV would be a suitable distributer. The company works with many producers and posts their short films for them. To get the max amount of views from the public they post the short films on their subscription TV channel across Europe, The Middle East and Africa. This would benefit use as it would attract a wider demographic. They also use the well known Itunes to distribute the film allowing for people to download it. The company has many tie ins with well known companies such as google and amazon meaning we have more platforms for our short film to be posted on and viewed on by the public. This increases the chance of people viewing our film.

This company works with many different genre styles that are uncommon within the mainstream film production. This would be beneficial for our film because of the uncommon genre that out film is.

Conclusion

Working with a company such as international TV would mean that out film would be available online as well as on TV stations. This will help our film attract a wider demographic as there are more platforms for our short film to be viewed on.
