'Film 4' would be my first choice of production companies to distribute our media product. Having researched the company online, it states their 'ethos is to co-finance and develop up-coming film productions'. As Film 4 often invest time and money in new British talent, I believe our thriller would stand a good chance of being funded and distributed. Film 4 often has themed nights and seasons, highlighting a genre, director or actor. This product would be well placed in a thriller category, perhaps after a world wide distribution by Film 4 it would be marketed for DVD sales and eventually shown on TV. It would give us a great opportunity to be able to work along side some of the Britain's best film makers. One low budget film that was funded by Film 4 and which did incredibly well was 'Slumdog Millionaire'. It went onto be nominated for ten Academy Awards and won eight. Directed by Danny Boyle and produced by Simon Beaufroy. This film was originally shown at the Telluride Film Festival in Colorado, USA, before being shown at the London Film Festival. This is the path I envisage our film to take. I feel a film festival is more likely fitting venue for our film to be shown.
