What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
We wanted to choose
an institution which is relevant to our opening scene, so we decided to choose Columbia
Pictures. We chose this institution based on the fact that Columbia Pictures has
been involved in many spy thriller genre films including four James Bond films
which are Quantum of Solace, Casino Royale, Skyfall and the upcoming film,
Spectre. Columbia Pictures also helped distribute Men in Black 3 which contains
elements from spy thriller films for example fast paced music and costume. I
took inspiration from these films by using there costume ideas and adapting it
to our sequence, for example in Men In Black, the commonly worn costume is a
black and white suit which we had our antagonist wear. Whereas in the James
Bond films the female is portrayed as a sex icon as often wears clothing which
is appealing. However we wanted to both make our female protagonist independent
and powerful yet attractive and appealing to men.
The institution, Columbia
Pictures is in fact a major film studio and is owned by the parent company,
Sony Pictures Entertainment. This entire branch of different institutions falls
into the big six therefore this would be best if our film would be sent to
cinemas for the release instead of a DVD release. Within our opening sequence
we didn’t include Columbia Pictures logo; however we did include the name of
the institution near the end of the opening scene. We decided to have text
shown instead of a logo as text helps keep continuity throughout the sequence
as helps make it appear more professional.
