I believe that Univeral would most likely distribute our film because it is similar to 'Dawn of the Dead' which they and most companies follow and theme so our film would most fit theirs.

I believe our appeal to a wider audience is fine becasue ther is no significant theme which means it can only appeal to the UK. There is no specified country and the story line can be used to take place anywhere in the world allowing it to appeal to a wider audience.

I think that a good way to get our film known is to use the social networks and media to distribute the trailer because everyone that goes to the Cinema uses the media and that is how word is spread about the film.
