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

There are many media institutions that produce box office movies, all with different histories and drama’s of their own. The media institution that could distribute our media product could be Universal Pictures. The company was founded in 1912 by Carl Laemmle; Universal Studios is the second longest-lived studio in Hollywood, second to Paramount Pictures. The company continues today an in innovator in the area of expertise in; film, television, music, theme parks, home video and other consumer products.

Thriller films that Universal Pictures have distributed go from the Bourne trilogy, Psycho, Changeling, Angels and Demons, Dirty Harry and The Italian Job.  All of these films have been highly successful productions and are still well known today.

Universal Pictures is an appropriate institution to produce/distribute our Thriller because it is a well known company that has had successful films in the past. Also, it being an American company it can help make it a successful film over in the United States and maybe Worldwide. Because of this more money can be put into it and make more money from it due to a wider audience. Also, because it is a large media institution it can entice audiences in by advertising the Thriller and financially be able to back the film with a large sum of money.
