Lionsgate is committed to being an innovator - creating windowing strategies to adapt to audience needs and changing viewing habits.
The most likely production company who will produce my film is dimension films because they specialise in producing horror genre films and have produced successful films of horror genre films such as: Halloween 1 (2007), Halloween 2 (2009), Halloween - the curse of Michael Myers, Halloween H20 - 20 years later, Halloween resurrection, Amityville horror, Black Christmas (2006), Scream 1, Scream 2, Scream 3, Scream 4, Hellraiser 3 -Hell on earth, Hellraiser - Inferno, Hellraiser - Hellseeker, Hellraiser - Deader, Hellraiser - Hellworld, Dracula 2000, Dracula 2 - Ascension, Dracula 3 - Legacy, Darkness, 1408, The mist, Apollo 18, The hole, Wolf creek, Rogue (independent film), dark skies, after shock, Amityville: The Awakening, Mimic 1, Mimic 2, Mimic 3, Existenz, Below, They, Cursed, Pulse, The Gathering, Venom, and Phantoms.whereas Lionsgate does not specialise in producing horror slashers as they have only distributed one horror slasher at this moment of time which dimension films have produced and distributed 15 horror slashers.
The ideologies of my film convey horror slashers in which includes eerie music, usually a masked killer, almost unstoppable killer, gore, sudden appearances of the killer to startle the audiences, Final girl, masculine males are killed, the props used are usually knifes or any other type of blade to inflict a slow painful death and to reinforce the fear of gore, lighting is normally dim which is supported with eerie music to create an eerie atmosphere, point of view shots, low angle shots, slow editing, the colours of red, black, and white is used within the film especially in the title sequence. These ideologies is also shared with many films that dimension films have produced such as Halloween 1 (2007), Halloween 2 (2009), Halloween - the curse of Michael Myers, Halloween H20 - 20 years later, Halloween resurrection, Black Christmas (2006), Scream 1, Scream 2, Scream 3, Scream 4, Hellraiser 3 -Hell on earth, Hellraiser - Inferno, Hellraiser - Hellseeker,Hellraiser - Deader, and Hellraiser - Hellworld.
These ideologies fits in with an existing institution such as Dimension films as they have made lots of horror slashers as mentioned above, whereas Universal pictures which have made The Strangers, Halloween 2 (1981), Psycho 2, Psycho 3, and Psycho (1998). which they have made less horror slashers as they do not specialise in horror slashers.

Mainstream films are distributed or screened in film theatres which makes films have wide releases.In a worldwide perspective, these films could be defined as Hollywood films as they make up the majority of worldwide film releases, it appeals to the global audience.
What is an Independent film?
Independent films are made by a professional film production which results in a feature film which is produced completely/mostly outside of the major film studio system. Independent films are sometimes distinguishable due to the film's content and style. Independent films usually are made with a low budget compared to other major film studios. Independent films are often screened in local, national, or even international film festivals before they are distributed for theatrical and retail release.
My film will be mainstream because i want it to appeal to a global audience as i want it to be as successful as it can. This has been achieved with many horror slashers that have been produced by successful institutions such as Halloween franchise which has been made from Dimension films and Universal films, Psycho franchise which has been produced by Universal films, and Scream franchise which has been produced by Dimension films. Also the successful horror slashers are mostly mainstream that contains most of the same ideologies of my film.
