Evaluation - Question 3 - Thriller Opening

3) What kind of media institutions might distribute your media product and why?


Many types of media institutions produce and distribute different types of media products. One example of a media institution that does this would be Time Warner Inc. Time Warner Inc is an American multinational company and entertainment conglomerate headquartered in New York City. It is currently the world's third largest entertainment company in terms of revenue, after Comcastand and The Walt Disney Company. It was also once the world's largest media conglomerate. Time Warner was first founded in 1990 with the merger of Time Inc and Warner Communications. The current company consists largely if the assets of the former Warner Communications (as well as HBC, a Time Inc subsidiary prior to the merger) and the assets of Turner Broadcasting (which was acuired by the company in 1996).

I believe we would use a multinational conglomerate media company such as Time Warner. I think it would be a good choice because it can get our film more noticed in other countries which means we will be able to obtain more income from the people watching as more people will see. The disadvantage to this however would be the fact that an American company would have partial control over the production. This means that we won't have as much choice in what happens. I still believe it would be the best choice as it gives us a bigger budget to get our film advertised.
