what kind of institution might distribute your media product and why?

The institution that myself and members within the group of making the project of the opening sequence, would consider Liosnsgate as this is most appropiate and successful. When making the opening sequence, myself and members within the media group looked at this institution and carried out several peices of research, such as what examples of films that they distribute, the genre, how successful and whether this would be effective for the opening sequence 'The Ritual' in which we have produced.

One way of considering how to convey, advertise and market the main actresses and actors that are included within the media product is that they could have the names of the individuals, within the section of where the titles take place in the media product. Commonly in the opening sequence, to engage and settle the audience.. This is a very important aspect to do and assure that the stages of importance of who is included within the process of the film is visually displayed throughout. In our opening sequence, that we have produced, we carried out the titiles thrroughout the beginning when darkness appears. This is to settle and engage the audience, as well as hearing a voice the audience are also visually focussing on to what is appearing on to the screen.

When looking at how our media product could be represented and shown to an audience. I have looked at what films that Lions gate have released taking influences from these. Some of the following films, that have influenced this media product and looking at the similarities, are some of the following films: Saw, Cabin in the woods, you’re next, the possession and Texas Chainsaw 3D.

Looking at age appropriate, I have looked at resources that have informed me and I have learnt from, that most horror and thriller based films are released at the following ages of 15 years old and 18 years old, this is because of the film product consisting of important and sensitive elements.

Age 15 films and media products consist of the following:
strong language
portrayals of sexual activity
sexual nudity
brief scenes of sexual violence or verbal references to sexual violence discrimination language or behavior

Personally I think that looking at the opening sequence, that myself and the group have produced, it is successful and has used the correct distribution and ideal institution when in the process of the project. The target audience has been carefully considered, and there are appropaiite reasoning for the age that has been selected. The institution is well suited and successful refelecting what the narrative of the opening sequence, as well as what is visually displayed throughout 'The Ritual'.
