In terms of comparison between the studied films ; Skyfall, Ill Manors and A field in England, Each film are similar but very different. For instance Skyfall was a high budget blockbuster film that flexed there financial muscles to use tons of promotion  as well as highly increase the production value of the film. Ill Manors went for the approach of being funded by small production companies to make a urban drama that conflicts with was people's steroetypes of a certain group of people. Despite Ill Manors minuscule budget, it did what it can by using unconventional ways to promote its production. However, despite  A field in England's larger yet small budget of £300 thousand, they decided to go with the unvonventional way of distrubution releasing its film in cinema's, free to air TV, VOD and a DVD release.
