Flim Release Pattern

Wide Release:
  • Most common release pattern
  • Film release nationally in all markets
  • these release patterns requires heavy investments so is used by all the majors
  • Producers/distributors can gain revenues to recoup their investments in a shorter period of time (providing th film is successful
  • revenues from video/DVD sales can be regained fast from quickley executed releases


Modified Wide Release:
  • Film will open in only a few markets
  • awareness builds week to week 
  • engagements at limited number of screens
  • relies on positive word-of-mouth reputation to develope - moves slowly to additional theatres
