EVALUATIONQuestion 3 and 4: What kind of media institution might distribute your product and why? How will you attract/adress your audience?

Our thriller is a low-budget student thriller - therefore generating money for promoting the movies and showing it on the big screen will not be possible at first. However the 21st century has enabled students to gain a large audience without the expensive costs. Many sites provide a free platform in which students and others could showcase their work and talent.

This award winning student film has hit 8110 hits on youtube:



Youtube is considered to be one of today's strengths to reach target audiences - it is used internationally from music videos and daily soaps. This site can help us to attract our audience quite quick. We can all upload our thriller film or trailer to our page. It will first be watched by friends and family that know about it, then my word of mouth and when people search student videos. The link of the video can also be put up on other pages such as facebook, twitter and other social sites.

Facebook is the most used social site at the moment and many things are possible here. Facebook is used by millions of people and gives access not to just a tech savvy audience but a much larger one as it is used by so many people. The link for the thriller can be put up on our walls and of Friends and family. A fan page can also be made where people can join - this gives us an idea how many people like movie. Twitter can also be used - the link can be put up so people can see.

This is our thriller on youtube:



If the movie gets a large number of hits, it will become popular and internationally known showing that social sites like facebook and video sites such as youtube can potentially reach a global audience.
