Research into institutions.

This is a list of the top thrillers, with the institution and directors, from this research we have been able to decide on the institution that we want to produce our's.

The Godfather, Paramount Pictures. (1972, Francis Ford Coppola)
The dark night, Warner bros Pictures. (2008, Christopher Nolan)
Rear window, Paramount pictures and universal. (1954, Alfred Hitchcock)
Fight club, 20th century fox. (David Fincher, 1999)
Psycho, Paramount pictures and Universal. (Alfred Hitchcock, 1960)
Se7en, New line cinema. (David Fincher, 1995)

Paramount pictures have been the institution behind some of the best thrillers of all time; they have made films such as The godfather, Rear Window and Psycho. They continue to make top class films, which are first aired in the cinema like there up coming ‘Shutter Island’ (Director, Martin Scorsese, March 12th 2010). The institution has a strong reputation for making good thrillers witch deliver suspense and never fail to thrill.

Due to there good reputation we have decided that Paramount should produce our film as supposed to Universal or 20th century fox, because the films that these produce are more Hollywood, we want ours to have a more realistic approach that gives the feeling of everyday life.


Another good reason for choosing Paramount is because of its use of synergy. Paramount have not converged with iTunes, however they are able to distribute and advertise there products on the programme. This broadens there global reach to a much wider audience, as the company is so widely know as used by people of all ages. To distribute there products they use another division in the company (synergy) which is Paramount Home Video which was founded in 1975. This also distributes for DreamWorks, and therefore gets a cut in their profit.

Paramount create websites to promote there film, for example there new film Shutter Island starring Leonardo DiCaprio, and directed by Martin Scorsese has its own website, chat rooms, and forums. There have been interviews shown on MTV with the cast that promote the film. They have advertised also by creating posters and using previews on the site and in cinema’s.
