Details of Possible Distributor

After looking though multiple distributors based upon the similar story lines, I wrote down the two most reoccurring ones and chose to use them. Because our film is an Action/Sci fi film, with hints of typical Superhero movie, I believe it will do very well with mainstream distributors, as opposed to independent ones, however I was able to find an Independent film distributor that would work well with our film. These are the three distributors I looked into:

20th Century Fox (M):
Distributed films including:
  • The Book Theif
  • Avatar
  • Rio
  • Rise of the Planet of the Apes
  • Ice Age
  • Titanic
The films produced by 20th Century Fox are generally light harted and animated, however their variety can change from time to time. Most films produced by 20th Century Fox are more Marketable than Playable, due to their high production values.



Paramount Pictures (M):
Distributed films including:
  • Star Trek
  • Star Trek: Into Darkness
  • Avengers
  • Transformers
  • Thor
  • Rango
  • G.I. Joe
  • Iron Man 3
Most of the films produced by Paramount are rather simular to our genre, with the odd acception. They are mainly action/adventure films, however their recent film Star Trek: Into Darkness is featured in my familiar films section, along with the Avengers, and therefore stood out to me as being a relavent and good distributor to have, as their films are very Marketable.



Metrodome Group (I):
Distributed films including:
  • We Are The Freaks
  • Slacker
  • American Evil
  • The Crimson Ocean
  • White Tiger
As this distributor is independent, the films it distributes relies on playability to sell the movie, rather than a high production value. Because the film we are producing includes special effects, and has many marketable qualities, I would recommend we use a mainstream distributor, but this distributor would fit the genre of our film.
