What kind of Media institution might distribute your media product and why?

When taking into consideration what institutions they are for film there are quite a few companies. Here are some of the main ones:
-Pixar
-Universal Studios
-20th Century Fox
-Warner Bros.
-Dream Works
-Paramount Pictures
There are also small companies such as:
-Film 4
-Walt Disney Feature Animation
-Nickelodeon
-Sony Pictures
-The UK Film Council
Most of these are no good for my film as they are animation companies and our film is not an animation film. One of the best companies to be distributed from would probably be warner bros. but i think realistically Universal Studios would probably take on our film as it is in the right genre of the rest of their films such as, 'Hannibal' as this isn't similar to our film but the main character in this film has gone a bit mental in the head like the main character in our film, this would only be if our film was big, but if we were realistic to start with they wouldn't take our film on. So instead i decided to research into The Uk Film Council, when i did this i found that they would like to make the UK a global centre for films amongst the worlds competitive film industry, after finding this out then i thought they would distribute mine and Nicole's film as they support most up coming film directors from the UK, i would then hope that the UK would watch our film and be attracted to it.
I think our film would start at small cinemas as it wouldn't be very well known, but i hope that it would get transfered to bigger cinemas such as VUE Cinema Cribbs Causeway and then it will eventually get into shops and hopefully get brought quite a lot here.
