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

The production company for our opening title sequence is ‘STAP Productions’. We came up with STAP Productions as it represents our group names, the ‘S’ stands for Shauna, ‘T’ stands for Tayla, ‘A’ stands for Aliysa and the ‘P’ stands for myself Patrick.

A production company is a company responsible for physical production of new media, performing arts, film, radio or a television program. The company may also be directly responsible for raising of funding for the production or may accomplish this through an representative. The production company may be either a small company or a larger one, selling its products to a film studio or presenting it at a theatrical venue, or, in the case of film and television, it may be the studio itself.

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

The idea of a distributer is to market and distribute new media to television channels, fund the script, film development and production, inward investment, certification, co-production, film exports, statistics, distribution and exhibition.

Our film would be funded by the UK film council and all the expenses needed to create the movie would be given by them, this is where the money would come from.

The UK Film Council is the Government-backed lead agency for film in the UK ensuring that the economic, cultural and educational aspects of film are effectively represented at home and abroad.

The various people are named in the titles to show who done what to give credit to those who helped make the themes or to even attract some people into watching the film if they see a big name such as a celebrity staring in the film. A few of the jobs that appear in the titles include cinematographer, actor, director, music, producer etc.

Our film “Split” is similar institutionally to ”Dr. hyde and Mr. jeckyll” (1931) as the story is based on scientist which secretly has two sides to him when he drinks the potion. It is released in the same way as our thriller “Split” as the man also secretly has two sides to him hence the name “Split”.
