We feel as though an independent U.K film company such as Vertigo Films would be perfect to distribute our film.
Although Vertigo is an independent film company, it has many links with various other film companies, and businesses bared in other media, such as Warner Bros. and Rockstar Games.
By having synergies within various other forms of media, Vertigo have allowed themselves to reach out to a far greater audience, and they have gained the ability to act more like a conglomerate, rather than a small, independent company.
we also considered an art-house film company for our distribution. 20th Century Fox’s branch devoted to art-house films, Fox Searchlight, was considered, if we were to decide on trying to get the film distributed by an art-house company. With Fox Seachlight being directly linked to 20th Century Fox, the commercial appeal for our film would be greatly enhanced.
Although the idea of our thriller being distributed by a company such as Fox Searchlight seemed more lucrative than having the film distributed by a company like Vertigo, we decided to opt for having the film distributed by an independent U.K company. The choice was down to the fact that we believe Vertigo and other such companies are more than capable of gaining a large enough fan base for the film, and also to show support for the U.K industry, which is very much in the shadow of Hollywood.
