Question 1

There are many different ways that movies are distributed to the audience. Movies are mainly introduced to the public via trailers and posters but this depends what time of the year it is. This means people atre more liely to spot the trailers on TV during winter time this is because they watch TV more TV and stay indoors because of the weather. However during summertime more people are out and posters are seen on the bustops, buses, taxis and billboards.
Also some cineams do screenings of the movie which gives the opportunity to the people to go and view the movie and give their opinion about it.
It is important for the people who distrubute the movie to be aware of the fact that audience have the power when it comes to judging the movie therefore in order to succeed they need to attraqct their audience in the best possible way. Also the audience might be encouraged to go and see particular movie after seeing some famous Holywood actors in the movie so they will be more likely to go and see it because of it.
When talking about producing the movie there are different institutions such as Universal which can be involved with the movie this also links with the distribution because Universal is a well known big succesful comapny which produced movie such as: four weddings and a fubneral,the boat that rocked, and love actually. The audience might want to decide to see the movie because of this. This also depends on the box office in other words how much money the movie has made. This shows how succesful it turned out to be.
Megafranchise plays a big part to the movie as well. The movie is more likely to be popular once gadgets such as mugs, computer games, mascots, and posters come up. This helps the movie to get popular. For example with Harry Potter the book came out  and it was a huge success along with all the gadgets such as toys, games espeacially the movie was a huge hit this made the audience to go and watch it in the cinemas. After few months the DVD came out and it made even more money at the box office because everyone wanted to have their own copy and watching it again.
