2.  Their are a variety of media institutions which would
distribute our final media product, as it is a Crime/Thriller
genre which has became popular over the past ten years
due to big blockbuster films such as Law abiding citizen
and Sin City. Due to these recent successful films in both
the box office and critically acclaimed awards their will be a
demand for a movie like ours within a variety of media
institutions, throughout these slides I will reveal some of
the Media Institution which may be interested in
distributing my Media Product.

3. Warner Bros
 As shown in my research Warner Bros was one of the institutions I
investigated due to that research I discovered they distributed ‘The
departed’ (Martin Scorsese 2006), I highly successful film within the
Crime/thriller genre. ‘The Departed’ had a budget of $90 million and
grossed over $289 million, prior to that this film was also successful in
the academy awards by winning four Oscars including best picture.
Due to this success of this film I believe Warner Bros would distribute
our media product as it shares the same genre and has a similar
narrative what has shown success before in both box office and the
accolades so it would be strategically investment.

4. Overture Films
 Overture Films are an American production and distribution company
what has also had success in the past with the Crime/Thriller genre,
which has made them an expert in marketing and distributing these
types of films. Their most successful film would be ‘Law Abiding
Citizen’. This movie had a budget off $53 million but it was hugely
successful in the box office as it grossed over $126 million, however it
wasn’t as successful as ‘The Departed’ in winning awards. I believe
Overture Films would distribute our Media Product, as they have had
success with these types of film in the past and have recently only
focused upon creating films with a similar genre.

5. Miramax films
Miramax films may also be interested in distributing our
media product as it also has success within this genre.
For example their release of ‘Sin City’ was also hugely
successful at the box office as it only had a budget of $40
million and grossed over $158 million, they may be
interested in our media product as again we share a
similar genre and narrative.
