production and distribution company research
The image above shows some popular horror films. Each film has a individual distributor; distributors are responsible for making the film. The most common distributor in this list is DreamWorks. This distributor appears three times which could be because they are good at making films. Also because they are popular they would most likely have a good amount of money to put into the film so that the film woulds have better special effects etc.
We got our inspiration to make a joint Production company and Distributer logo from the Sinister Trailer 2012. As many movies and films use both a distributer and a production company, we wanted to be different join them both together which would make or teaser trailer more original and unique. AH
This distributor is the most common distributor of the horror genres. This influenced us to do ours because we like the idea of it being high up in the sky like its above the rest of the world. Also we like the clear text and how it stands out from the background.
This is the second most common distributor for horror movies. We also like this one because its in the sky. Also the logo and title is easily recognisable over the world and is a trusted company.
This distributor appears twice in the top horrors, which means its a successful distributor. This distributor influenced us in making ours because ours has a motion background of space in it as well; this is because we like the effect of it being 'Out of This World'.

Production company
Here is a selection of different productions companies and Distributors that are very well known. By looking at these different production companies and distributors we were able to see which production companies were most commonly used and which are the most effective. From looking at each of them we have discovered that having a motion background is a definite must as this is what makes the distributor or production company effective. We have also learnt that Each distributor and Production company have very clear and bold text and a very simplistic soundtrack meaning that it would be useful to us to use bold text in order for our production company/ distributor to stand out from the rest. The sound track would have to be simple yet effective and must relate back to our production/distribution logo and title. If we were to use a motion background then for it to be an effective and an understandable distributor/production company, then the title would have to have some sort of link to the motion background For example the 'Universal' distributor uses the motion background of the universe and the earth, linking the motion background to the text and title of the distributor.
