Research and development - Annapurna

As i am using Annapurna as my distributor for my film, it is vital that i get an understanding of the type of distributor they are. Recently Annapurna has helped distribute some very high quality films such as: Zero dark thirty, Killing them softly, Lawless and American hustle. They are even involved in the distribution of the Fox catcher coming in 2015.

When i was looking on the Annapurna website. I looked on there about section and found a statement from them which i felt made them the perfect distributor for my film. The quote was "Annapurna Pictures is a film production and finance company founded with the goal of creating sophisticated, high-quality films that might otherwise be deemed risky by contemporary Hollywood studios. The company, which many consider to be a one-stop shop for filmmakers, has provided the industry with a critical boost of mature, adult dramas in recent years."  This gave me great confidence that Annapurna was the right choice for my film and that using this distribution company would give the film the leap forward it needs.

Furthermore, my magazine is going to be made by Little white lies. Lots of Annapurna films have had articles made about them by little white lies with films such as Lawless and the Master taking the main front cover. This gave me further confidence that the choice i made was right as it builds a sense of continuity throughout my film trailer and magazine.
