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

The Production Company would invest money towards the making of the film or would create links with larger companies to make the budget higher.
The research I done on production companies was to world wide film distributors this is because our film relates to a very wide target audience due to it being a supernatural horror. The actually film 'The Abandoned' was produced with us; KAS Media Productions however to distribute our film we would of linked up with Paramount Pictures this is a internationally established distribution company for the horror genre with them having a lot of success with films such as Paranormal Activity. This is because we need a distribution company that cater for horror because Warner brothers is also a well known company however they specialise in gangster films such as ‘goodfells’ which brought them great success. Also working with a large distribution company will help our constantly evolving production company KAS, paramount pictures also has many advantages to it with it being able to release our short film into many cinemas in england and over seas such as america. it would also be able to then distribute it on to a dvd and tv on demand, however our short film does not involve any professional actors or actresses so if we wanted it to be released they would have to be repalced. Although the low budget wouldn't be a problem because this adds to the effect of the film like in paranormal activity there budget was only $15,000.

We would also work with some small institutions such as:
uk film council - attack the block
Film 4 - St Trinian's
