UK Film Distribution

All Films need a distributor to allow their film to be released. The distributor determines how a film is distributed, the format is is released in (blue-ray, cinema, DVD, online streaming). This often depends on how successful they feel the film is going to be, whether it will be big enough to hit the big screen or better of being put on a DVD in January.

Here is a like to a video that shows the process of publishing a film to ensure that it is globally accessible. It also highlights the key processes of a film distribution and how it generally works in the world of film.




Here are Two films from the Thriller Genre. The previous post showed the evaluation of The Black Swan opening and what made it a thriller. The second film Inception also follows the thriller qualities but in a different style. As you can see both of these films have been distributed by well known distributors 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros. 

This is part of the reason why they are such big mainstream films because of their distributors as well as the content quality and faith these distributors have in these films.
