Distribution is the process of bringing the film to the market or the audience. There are 4 stages: production which is the process of making the film, marketing which is promoting or advertising the film, distributing which is getting it to the audience (e.g. getting it to the cinema or the internet) and consuming which means the audience using the product (watching the film).
My film is a low budget British film with unkown British actors in it so is more likely to appeal to a British audience as they can relate to the surroundings.
Mainstream Hollywood film companies wouldn't be interested and it is unlikely at this stage that Hammer Horror would be interested in my work as I am not an established film producer.
Self promotion of my product is the only possible solution at this stage.
Here are some of the sites that will distribute my film:
 |
 |
 |
| Vimeo |
 |
| YouTube |
I have chosen these websites because they are free and they let me get a wide range of feedback from them.
I have also looked at youngcuts.com
"The YoungCuts Film Festival features filmmakers 29 and under, whose short films are under 30 minutes.
Young filmmakers compete with other young filmmakers on an equal footing, making this film festival a "must-submit" festival for filmmakers in this age group.
Globally recognized, the festival selects 100 films each year. This means that your film has a better chance of being an Official YoungCuts Film Festival selection."

Warner Bros won't distribute my film because I don't have that much experience making a film and it was shot with a low budget - we didn't have loads of money to help us.
