To find the ideal film company to make my group and my self’s film, I did a lot of research using IMDB to find the ideal company; and searched films that had similar themes and conventions to our film.
The ideal institution to make our film I believe would be Vertigo Film Company as they are a British film institution that focus on producing and distributing low budget films, which is what we intend our Thriller to be.
Vertigo films have made various different genres of films; an example of some of the films they have made are: Shotgun Stories, Spring Breakers, Walking on Sunshine and Horrid Henry. However I feel the film they made called WAZ is the most similar film to our film as it involves a lot of mystery and close up facial expressions which is what we are using in our film to convey emotions and to build up tension and confusion for the audience; which is something they could help us with.
From my research and knowledge I feel our film would particularly fit the ethos of Vertigo institution. As I mentioned above Vertigo Film Company are a British film company that produce and distribute low budget films; which is what we are intending to produce with our Thriller. There website http://www.vertigofilms.com/ advertises the films they have produced and distributed and I feel our film would particular fit in with their other films as there is such a wide variety of genres. Also as it is my group and my self's first time directing a film I feel Vertigo institution would really help us, just like they helped Gareth Edwards when he directed Monsters for the first time in 2010. Again I also think our film would be good for their company as they seem to have produced a few thrillers before so they will already have experience in order to help us to make our film the best it can be.
As my group and myself are a small group of teenagers we have a very low budget for our film, however we could market our film on the internet; for example social networking sites such as Twitter, Face Book, Instagram etc - as this does not cost anything. Also with the help of Vertigo film company it would be easier to get our film seen at film festivals and put on imdb’s listings as Vertigo is a lot more well known in the film industry than us.
Vertigo Film Company own the Firm and Football Factory which clearly makes them target a male audience. However, our film, we believe is targeted more at women than it is at men so I feel working with Vertigo Film Company would bring in both male and female viewers, therefore increasing the films profit.
