Key Words

A film distributor is the link between the producer and the exibitor ( the cinema chains, TV networks) ; their aims are to get as many people as possible to see the film.The distributoe markets the film abd develops an appropriate advertising campaign. To market sucessfully the distributor has to target the appropriate audience. This can be easy if there is a star, but harder is the case of a low budget independent film.
