What kind of media institution might distribute your product
and why?
.jpeg)
Examples of major media institutions: Disney, Sony, Times
Warner, ITV, etc. The probability of our media product in which could be
distributed by some of the major institutions is very low, the reason is because
that the chance that this thriller product may make the same amount of profit
as a blockbuster is impossible, as people do not know about this, that they may
be very cautious with a new media company, as it might be received with low
expectations.
Indie: Examples are of National Lottery in which help fund
it, especially with the microwave scheme, Film4, With an independent media company, the
probability is pretty high because they may adopt it and then give the
necessary funding and time to make several improvements to it. So companies
like Film4, and BBC, also FilmLondon can help out with a microwave scheme in
which can help with money and a timeline could be able to make and develop it
and for it to become a final product.
Once we get a media institution to back us up, the difficult
part is what kind of media distribution would be best advised for our thriller,
so if the worst scenario is that if the institution may think that next to
nobody would see this media product, then it would be released straight to DVD
release, and then we would rely on the sales of the DVD/Blu-Ray and how many
have bought it, another one can be simultaneous release, in which case, both
DVD will be released, and that it will be also released on demand and including
few-several prints will be made and that it could increase the amount of people
taking notice to this. Another way is via a wide release, it could be more
regional or even global, where several to many prints would be released in many
locations around the world. And then there is also a platform release, in which
it will be a small set of prints in which would be sent to a wide area, where
there could be more people seeing this. In a way, a straight to DVD/Blu-Ray
release would be a better reason as because it would cause less issues with
budget as there would be some people who would take a liking for something like
this.

In reality however, the main issue is that our thriller is
not even complete, that we only have 2-ish minutes of a thriller opening, so
there would be little to no chance of anyone backing and distributing our
thriller, so the way how we can promote our thriller is via a few ways, the
first way is to post it onto YouTube, and to use tags in which may help out,
the second is to tell people that we know that we have made it, so that means,
the use of word of mouth to promote our thriller, and also, another way that it
can be promoted is via the use of social media, in which the popular examples
like Facebook and Twitter can be used to rile up some conversation about this.

How does your media product represent particular social groups?
For the social groups that we have presented, we have mainly been on about the lower class-styled and upper class group, in which we have tried to make various representations throughout our media product/thriller opening.
The Lower Class: The lower class people, in which are shown within the thriller are seen as shady, mysterious people, and also, those who deal and supply products/items, which, may be illicit, and in which, may conforms to a stereotype in which the lower class people are often up to no good in which they often do things in which may not often be right at all.
Upper Class: The way how we have portrayed the upper class people in which, are considered to be a bit more sophisticated, ones in which may be considered to be overseers, to be in charge of the lower class "lackeys", they are ones in which they are the ones who lead people.
Here is the character analysis in which I wiill explain about their character types.
Me(Michal): The way how my character is being shiwn within the opening, is of the lower class person, one in which is the "lackey", someone who works for a person, in this case, I need to retrieve something for the upper class person, the person in which tells me what to do and to report if I got the item or not.
Sam: He is the higher/upper class person, he is essentially, the overseer, and I am the person that he hired me to do work, in this case, he observes and wants to get the job done, in which he would want things done, but does not want to get his own hands dirty, so he hires people who are within the lower class, and that those people would want to get paid.
Joshua: He is more of a mysterious person, his social class is unknown, but can be interpreted as somebody who is within the middle and lower class of people, the reason is because he deals and supplies, instead of narcotics, it is with technology, with the way how he is dressed, he can blend in easily with others.
The way how it is being shown is within the stereotype of the teenagers, as they are wearing hooded clothing, in jeans or tracksuits and all wear trainers. Along with this, there is also the male stereotype, as it is a stereotype that all men do the dirty work, and will do anything to get their reward.
