Evaluation: What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?



What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
What kind of film is my film?
My film has a run down, gritty style to it. My thriller is intended to be a psychological thriller. This gives me enough criteria to find my distributor.
An appropriate distributor
The first film I thought that was like mine was This is England (Shane Meadows, 2008) due to the grimy "British" look and it has at a low budget of 1.5 million (estimated: IMDB). This is England was distributed by optimum releasing, a company created in 1999.
Optimum Releasing has created other British films like Attack the Block (Joe Cornish, 2011). This was also gritty like my film.
"Optimum Releasing has consistently supported emerging filmmaking talent" http://press.optimumreleasing.net/about.php
Quote from the website of Optimum Releasing. This means it's perfect for a film like mine.
Although Optimum Releasing were bought by Studio Canal. Studio Canal still support small film makers.
