Picking a distributor for the film

After looking at the UK distributor's web page, I found out that there were two companies that did thrillers before, such being Altitude and Icon. Altitude, although newer, has got a small portfolio of three thriller movies; SAS: Red Notice, Fishing without nets and Spooks. The biggest of them all is Spooks as it has won several awards such as the BAFTA award.

However, they are nowhere close to Icon as it has a massive thriller portfolio, including well known titles such as Paranormal Activity and Drive, which are very high on tension which is exactly what we need and it will also mean that they will have more experience in that market of movies which then means that we can trust them more than other companies like Altitude. In addition, Icon specializes specifically in independent movies which we currently are at this moment, which means that they will have more experience and knowledge of what we need to do rather than Altitude.

In conclusion, I think that we need to choose Icon as a distributor as they have a larger thriller portfolio and they specialize in independent movies  industry which means that we can trust them more to distribute our movie well.

Film Treatment

Film Treatments:
·         The Detective: GEORGE HOLDING 23
A tall young man with narrow eyes and sharp nose indicate that this man doesn’t trust anyone and is sly and of high intellect. His cold and calm face shows that he's a man on a mission and that he'll work around any obstacle that he may face. The calm look in his eyes also shows that he is very difficult to be surprised by any event and that his guard is always up. This is also an indicator that he isn't afraid to look into the eyes of danger and that he's used to laugh in its face. Strange thing though, he wears clothes that don't suite his age. They look like they've come from the Victorian era out of a wardrobe of a quite prestigious man.

·         The Murderer: JENNIFER ELIAS 25

Like the detective she’s tall but slightly older than him which shows because her face is slightly more rounded. She has almost raven wing hair which indicates to her dark personality. Her squinted eyes show that she's suspicious of everyone and everything that indicates that she's up to no good and has things to fear from the past. Her walk is very quiet and stealthy which indicates that she'd rather avoid the danger than to face it. She, like the detective, wears very outdated clothes that look like they should be in a museum rather than on a young lady.
