Question 3

Question 3- What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

The whole point of a company logo is to show off who owns the company and who’s made the film. Big successful film companies include:

• Paramount       
• Dreamworks    
• 20th Century Fox    
• Metro Goldwyn Mayer       
• Warner Brothers     

We didn’t really have a major inspiration towards our logo- we put together the first letter of each of our names and a pawprint, to make it our own. Put our own print on it.

A production company is responsible for handling budgets and schedules. They are often owned or under a contract for a film studio or entertainment company. A production company is responsible for the development and filming of a specific production or media broadcast. In entertainment, the production process begins with the development of a specific project.

For our thriller opening I would have chosen 20th Century Fox due to its wide range in genres. They have been involved in cartoons, comedies, romances, thrillers and action. Most of the money is fund-raised when looking to produce a new film, even though they have the money from mother films they have produced in the past.

When the credits roll up it is generally in a matter of importance to the film, for example:

Director

Producer

Executive Producer

Line Producer

Production Manager

Assistant Production Manager

Production Coordinator

First Assistant director

Second Assistant director

Location Manager

Casting Director

Camera operator

Lighting

and then all the actors, actresses, and their stunt- doubles that were in the film.
