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

I believe paramount pictures would distribute my thriller opening as they have done a variety of films such as iron man, Indiana Jones, Beowulf. Also they have done a variety of thriller films such as transporters 1,2 and 3. paranormal activity 1,2 and 3. By having done sequels to most of there movies, this shows that they know what they are doing, and will know what is best for the audience. Paramount have also worked with a lot of big film directors, such a steven spielberg, and J.J abrams. These shows that they work with the best, so that they can produce high quality films. They will have all of the available resources.

Paramount has been going since 1910-present, so they are a very successful company also as it has been running for so long they will have many connections to other companies to help produce the thriller even more.

They also have a very large income, with revenue of $3.0 billion in 2005 and so they will have enough money to fund new and upcoming films, and see them all the way until their release date and further. Also through having this money they will be able to afford to publicise the films in order to get them a lot more known to the public and the films target audience. 

Paramount pictures is one of americas oldest media institutions, but is also one of the worlds oldest media institutions, and is also based in LA, Hollywood; by being based here they will have a lot of useful resources at their disposal and will have a wide range of places, or companies near that could be used to help produce the film. Hollywood is also very dominant in the media world so that would mean our film would get global distribution so all countries could watch it. Paramount is also a company known and trusted worldwide for producing top quality films and for having high quality actors, so we would receive a lot of publicity world wide.
