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

There are a huge range of labels in the world that produce and distribute films. I have researched a few of them:

This is essentially the child of The Paramount Pictures Corporation which produces and distributes films that have a more 'Art House' feel to them. Some of these include The Virgin Suicides, Sunshine and Winter Solstice. They produce many films based on books and feel that the quality of the film is far more important than a profit.
Known as one of the leading independent film distributors in the UK, based in London and releases about 20 films a year. It has had many successful films including Amélie, The Kings Speech, Lost in Translation, PS. I Love You and Control.

Film4 develops and co-finances films and is known for working with the most innovative talent in the UK, whether new or established. They have released films such as The Lovely Bones, Submarine and Never Let Me Go. This company are particularly interested in young, British film makers so something like this would be perfect.

Any of these media institutions might distribute my media product as many of the things they have produced are very similar to my work. As most of these things have been successful and my film opening fits the same kind of genres, they may be interested in my work.
