Possible distributors

Before we make the decision to entrust our film with a company, we though background research would be essential to enable us to make the right decision.

Dogwoof






http://dogwoof.com/
Dogwoof is a UK distributor that releases films nationwide through theatrical, DVD, mobile, TV and online platforms. Dogwoof back 'their releases with major marketing campaigns'.

With the ability to distribute our film with a variety of methods, as well as the popular Itunes, makes Dogwoof a strong contender and they are a company we are very interested in.

UK film Council


UK film council is a distribution company funded by the National Lottery. It gives support to new filmmakers and gets a wider choice of films to audiences throughout the UK.
UK Film Council has £15million a year to invest across the development, production and completion of feature films.

This interests our company as it helps fund emerging talent, however it does not offer the same marketing benefits as Dogwoof.

Entertainment Film distributors





http://www.entertainmentfilms.co.uk
Entertainment film distributors distributes in DVD rental, theatrical and retail fields as well as licensing a substantial catalogue in both Pay-TV and Free-TV sectors.

Though it would give us the opportunity to show our film on the 'big screen', we decided that our film is not as well suited to cinema and rather to be shown on the internet and retailed on Itunes. Also, other companies offer funding and provide much better advertising. Therefore Entertainment film distributor does not make the cut.

Other considered companies:
Leftfilms
Launching Films
Independent cinema office
