In this blog I will be talking changes me, and my partner made to what we are doing with are film. I will also be talking about the distribution company we chose, and movies associated with that distribution company.
One of the major changes we made is we decided to use an independent distribution company instead of a major distribution company. This decision means that we will have more freedom to produce the movie we want to produce. In other words, we can make decisions about what we want the movie to be about. We don’t have to follow the stereotypes. We get to make more of a decision about the characters’ in the movies personality and their personality.
The distribution company we chose was Roadside Attractions. It was founded in Los Angeles in 2003. It is associated with movies such as “The Puffy Chair”. The Puffy Chair is a 2005 R rated drama/ comedy drama. It grossed a total of 194, 523 dollars with a budget of 15,000. This means that the movie was able to earn some of the money back. This shows that this distribution company has had success with movies of our genre. This distribution company has also been successful with many comedies and dramas. This shows that the company has worked with films like ours before. There most successful movies being the pg-13 rated drama/ romance “Judy” and “The Peanut Butter Falcon” which is a 2019 drama/narrative. "The Peanut Butter Falcon" grossed a total of 22 million dollars with a budget of 6.2 million. This means that this company was able to distribute a movie good enough to have little to no debt. This shows that Roadside Attractions is willing to invest in movies such as ours that they believe will be a success. In other words they our willing to risk financial debt in order to distribute a movie that they believe will be successful.
