POPPY REYNARD

FILM PRODUCTION COMPANIES

A PRODUCTION COMPANY OR A PRODUCTION HOUSE PROVIDES THE PHYSICAL

BASIS FOR WORKS IN THE REALMS OF THE PERFORMING ARTS, NEW MEDIA ART,
FILM, TELEVISION, RADIO AND VIDEO.

I AM GOING TO BE LOOKING IN TO WHAT FILM DISTRIBUTORS AND PRODUCTION

COMPANIES RELEASED FILMS WITH THE SAME/SIMILAR GENRE/THEME I WANT
TO USE FOR MY PROJECT.

I AM ALSO GOING TO BE LOOKING AT WHAT THESE DISTRIBUTORS MAIN TARGET

AUDIENCE IS WITH THESE SPECIFIC FILMS.

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS IS SITUATED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WITH ITS

HEADQUATRES LOCATED IN UNIVERSAL CITY, CALIFORNIA.

FIRST EMERGED AS EARLY AS 1912 AND FUNDED BY 10 DIFFERENT PEOPLE.

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS IS KNOWN PROFFESSIONALLY AS UNIVERSAL PICTURES AND IS AN

AMERICAN FILM STUDIO OWNED BY COMCAST THROUGH THE UNIVERSAL FILMED
ENTERTAINMENT GROUP.

ITS THE OLDEST SURVING FILM STUDIO IN THE UNITED STATES.

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS IS A MEMBER OF THE MOTION PICTURE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA

AND IS ONE OF HOLLYWOODS BIG SIX STUDIOS.

THEY RELEASE A LARGE NUMBER OF FILMS ALL UNDER DIFFERENT GENRES. SOME OF THE
FIULMS RELEASED THAT ARE LINKED WITH MY GENRE FOR MY TRAILER IS: JAWS, THE
BOURNE ULTIMATUM, OUIJA: THE ORIGIN OF EVIL.

THESE FILMS HAVE ALL BEEN RELEASED WITH THE FILM CLASSIFICATION OF EITHER 12 OR
15. ALSO USEFUL TO MY PROJECT AS THAT IS THE MAIN TARGET AUDIENCE I WANT TO BE
AIMING MY PROJECT AT.

WARP FILMS
UNITED KINGDOM

WARP FILMS IS AN INDEPENDENT FILM AND TELEVISION COMPANY BASED IN

SHEFFIELD & LONDON, UK. THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER WARP FILMS SITUATED IN
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA.

THEY RELEASED A FILM CALLED HUSH THEMED HORROR RELEASED IN 2009.

KILL LIST IS ALSO A HORROR RELEASED BY WARP WHICH RELATES TO MY
THEME FOR MY TRAILER.

THE FILM CLASSIFICATION FOR THE FILM KILL LIST IS 18, MEANING THE
CONTENT ISNT SUITABLE FOR VIEWERS UNDER THAT AGE. THIS IS NOT WHAT I
WANT MY TRAILER TO BE AS IM AIMING IT AT STUDENTS WITH THE MAIN FILM
CLASSIFICATION BEING 15.

PARAMOUNT PICTURES
UNITED STATES

PARAMOUNT PICTURES IS AN AMERICAN FILM STUDIO, TELEVISION PRODUCTION

COMPANY AND FILM DISTRIBUTOR BASED IN HOLLYWOOD, CALIAFORNIA THAT
HAS BEEN SUBSIDARY OF THE AMERICAN MEDIA CONGLOMERATE VIACOM SINCE

PARAMOUNT IS THE FIFTH OLDEST SURVIVING FILM STUDIO IN THE WORLD.

PARAMOUNT PICTURES RELEASED THE MISSION IMPOSSIBLE FILMS WHICH ARE

SIMILAR GENRES TO WHAT I WANT MY FILM TRAILER TO BE WITH ALSO THE AGE
RATING (FILM CLASSIFRICATION) OF 15 WHICH I WANT MY TRAILER TO ALSO BE.

WHAT IMPACT INSTITUTIONAL

PRACTIONERS HAVE ON MY WORK?

FROM LOOKING AT EXISITING DISTRIBUTORS AND INSTITUTIONAL PRACTIONERS

(DISTRIBUTORS & FILM PRODUCTION COMPANIES) I HAVE SEEN WHAT SPECIFIC
COMPANIES RELEASE WHAT TYPE OF FILM AND SPECIFIC DETAILS ABOUT EACH.

SOME OF THEM REALLY RELATE TO MY TRAILER, IN PARTICUALRY FILM

CLASSIFICATIONS (MAINLY FROM WARP FILMS) THAT THEY RELATE TO MY
TRAILER THE BEST.
