Research Into The Industry/Genre

 Thrillers

Thrillers are a genre of film that contain various conventions and techniques, these include: excitement, suspense and tension. Thrillers tend to stimulate the viewer, forcing adreneline around their body to hook them into what is happening on screen. Films of this genre tend to be intense, gritty and fast paced.
I can use this knowledge to further help me with my production because I can implement some of these aspects to solidy my film into the genre of thriller.

Subgenres   

Whilst thriller is a broad concept they can be narrowed down into specific sub genres. Some of these include psychological thrillers, crime thrillers, erotic thrillers and mystery thrillers. Another common subgenre of thriller is the spy genre.

What would it take for my film to be recognised by a production company?

I have found a video prodcution company that help younger directors get recognition as larger companies, like Warner Bros. or MGM, would not be interested in small budget, independant movies. The video production company I have found is called 'Agile Films' and they are located in London. On their webstie there is a 'Contact' section that outlines what needs to be done in order to contact the right person so you can get your film noticed by a wider audience. This is an exact quote from their website:
"If you're a director looking for representation, or you want to discuss an idea with our development team, please contact Kristian Brodie."
