RESEARCH: FILM RELEASE & EXHIBITION

This post will be a busy one, so make a PowerPoint (to upload as Slideshare) or use another platform which allows you to go from page to page with space for text and illustration, like Canva.
Title slide: FILM RELEASE & EXHIBITION

Slide 1: First read the brief Where? and write your introductory sentence that explains that exhibition is that part of the 'value chain' where distributors decide where to release the film and negotiate for screens.
about saturation or selected releases, and how London with its diverse population of 9.3 million people accounts for about a quarter of UK cinema admissions.

Then state that to research how distributors handle distribution, I consulted the BFI Handbook: Distribution and Exhibition (2018).  

Slide 2 WHO DECIDES? Main distributors. There are 3 images for this slide, two on Top distributors [BFI p.3] and one on FDA members [FDA p.117].

Slide 3 UK CINEMAS Image 1 for this slide is a picture with icons, below. Figure 1 explains about width of release [p.9].

The information here comes from p.12 & 14 of the BFI Handbook.
