Task 3: What institution would make my film?

The institution that I think would make my film would be vertigo because they produce and distribute low budget films. They want to produce and distribute commercially driven independently made films that enable them to make a profit.
Their aim is to compete with the mini majors such as fox searchlight, who distributed the film Taken, in the U.S.A. so they would try and produce and fund an equally as successful film as Taken. Similar films that are made are London to brighten and the Hitcher as they are both about people running away from someone which is what is going to happen in our film as her boyfriend is going to come and chase the men down which is going to make the film full of action.

Vertigos film budgets range between about half a million to about three million so as a first time director this would fit as I feel that my film would cost around this much. Vertigo have made a series of horror/thrillers such as the Children, The Cove and Outcast which shows that they have a niche audience from the ages of 15-24 that would watch my film. My film would mainly be viewed by a male audience so we have a female protagonist to attract female viewers. Vertigo sell the films abroad sometimes before the film is made so that they can put money into the film whilst making it which enables them to fully fund it and make the most out of the film.
