PRODUCTION
As previously mentioned in a earlier post, we were interested in our production company to be Film 4 productions. As a group we sat down and discussed the possible production companies that we could use. Through this discussion we decided that film 4 would be the best option as they are known for their development of successful films, including those of the thriller genre.
Film 4 have produced many films such as The Inbetweeners and Frank, as well as some thrillers such as The double and In fear.
Film 4 which was made by Channel 4, have produced and co-produced many films, where some of them have gone on to win Academy Awards and BAFTA'S. Due to this we thought they would be a suitable production company as they have made successful films, making them a good choice to produce our film.
Film 4 is an independent British film production company, therefor this makes it more of a suitable company to produce our film as it would also be more easy for us to access them than a production company from the Big 6 in America.
DISTRIBUTION
Distribution of a film is an important part in the success of films. Due to being teenagers and our target audience being teenagers whom use the internet on a daily basis we thought it would be suitable to use online platforms as our primary distribution for our film. Due to the fact our target audience use the internet on a daily basis we thought this would be the best platform to distribute our film on.
Our film would be distributed onto various online platforms and movie streaming sites, and the most popular streaming site that is used often by teenagers is 'Netflix'. Due to the fact that the majority of teenagers use online streaming sites we felt that this would be the best way to distribute our thriller. Another online distributor that we thought of was BBC Three, which used to be something you could access on the TV, due to it being online we thought it is most likely attracting a wider teenage audience therefor making it a suitable distributor for our thriller.
Through discussing, we decided that we did not want our thriller to be distributed through the use if main stream cinemas as it is of a high cost and the viewing of our film may not be successful.
MARKETING
Marketing is another vital part in ensuring that people know of new films and products are coming out to make sure that the success of people viewing it is large.
When considering our target audience for our film, We thought that social media and web based advertising would be the most suitable and the best way to market 'Jealousy'. By using social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Youtube and websites that are popular and often used by our target audience it would ensure that they would be aware of our film. Due to us not having a High budget we thought that low budget advertising would be the most affordable and the most effective way to market our film.
