The cinema still belongs to the main place for distribution of the audiovisual content, despite other growing possibilities. The cinema attendance had various tendencies in the past and it even increased last year. However, one thing is the general attendance and the other one is only the attendance of the inland production - and exactly this issue is the topic of this thesis.
The first part of this thesis is primarily focused on the results and the statistics regarding the attendance of the Czech films. Specifically, it is about the results of the attendance and the revenues, differences between classic cinemas and multiplexes. One chapter is also concerned with the genres of Czech films. The following part describes particular factors which can influence the cinema attendance and these factors are considering the results in the first part.

Distribution of audiovisual works in the digital era.
Pinkava, Jakub ; Havas, David (advisor) ; DANIELIS, Aleš (referee)
Comparing two, on the first look very different storytelling methods, might seem inappropriate. But everyone who saw a film based on a book or the other way around, doesn't have any problem with comparing these two against each other, pointing out strengths and weaknesses of each interpretation of the same story. In this paper I am focusing on comparison of distribution and development possibilities of film and computer game industries. Even though film professionals are trying to be innovative, game professionals are step ahead in the area of digital distribution, mainly if we target independent film or game distribution. The same applies to crowdfunding campaigns, which are in fact a possible beginning of distribution. In the end, it's always the producer who should develop and use a specific type of funding and distribution type for his audio-visual works.
