Television • After the films initial release in cinemas we would like it

to be aired on television, this would also be after the film had been released on DVD. • Because this film will be rated a 12 at most we feel that

the film would be suitable to aired on television and watched by families. • The film would most likely be shown on Film4 or BBC, as

theses channels are well established and attract large numbers of viewers, especially when a film is aired on their channels.

Web• We have already uploaded the opening of our film to

YouTube for audiences to watch, later we would release a trailer as well that would be published on YouTube. • A Twitter Page would also be created for the film in

order to help with the publicity and marketing of the film, attracting online audiences and widening the film to an online audience. • Once the film has been released on DVD we would also

allow it to be available on Netflix and Love film and other instant movie streaming websites so audiences still have access to the film on a number of electronic platforms.

DVD • The film would be released onto DVD after its initial

release in the cinema.• We would follow this pattern of distribution as it is the

method many action film production companies choose to follow, therefore our audience will be more familiar with this way of distribution. • The film would come out on DVD after it had been

screened in the cinema for around 3 months.
