Lesson 4- Kidulthood's process of Distribution, Productionand Exhibition

Produced in 2006, Kidulthood a British Drama Film which involves a number of issues occurring in the lives of a group of teenagers in Ladbrooke Grove and Latimer road area based in the inner streets of West London. The Film was the first production from the new production team called 'Revolver'. The British film being produced by this production team has a negative, because of being produced by a new production team means that they have very few links within the film industry, therefore promotion for the film would be hard to achieve. Achieving a good finance background for the film was always going to be hard, thus the film was helped by the film council by receiving money to support the making of the film.


Another Disadvantage for the film getting promotion is that the actors are not known, therefore , it may put of people who look for the big names. Big names will always produce good amount of views through its audience, but because of the film having unknown actors the promotion Will be very little as they haven't got a big name to base there film Upon, this is called a ensemble cast .


There is also another disadvantage for the film because the film directed is not a well known accomplished director. The director of Kidulthood is Menhaj Huda. Other then small films and productions this was his first break...
