DevelopmentPulp was written by Bode O'Toole, based on a series of troubling events Adam Hamdy endured during his ten years of experience developing comics, notably one particularly eventful trip to San Diego Comic Con in 2010. Hamdy's Dare Productions entered into a partnership with Midlands based production company Reels in Motion in order to develop Pulp in late 2010. Filming took place in Birmingham, Stoke-on-Trent and Altrincham with principal photography wrapping in early 2011. In April 2011, the producers of Pulp announced a deal with Aol to distribute online videos based on the Pulp brand.[2] In January 2013, the producers of Pulp announced a deal with Microsoft to distribute Pulp on the Xbox, making Pulp the first feature film to ever premiere on the platform.[3] The film was released exclusively on Xbox Live on 4 March 2013. Pulp marks a departure for a movie release by bypassing the usual route to viewers via traditional distribution models involving theaters or DVDs. The success of such a model could see more films being released in such a format.[4]References1. ^{{cite web |first=bbc |last=newsbeat |url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/21651921 |title=Film to be distributed via games console for the first time |work=BBC News |date=4 March 2013|accessdate=4 March 2013 }} 2. ^{{cite web |first=News |last=Yahoo |url=https://news.yahoo.com/s/prweb/20110414/bs_prweb/prweb5241084 |title=Pulp Inks Digital Content Distribution Deal with AOL UK |work=Yahoo News |date=14 April 2011 |accessdate=14 April 2011 }} 3. ^{{cite web |first=Hollywood |last=Deadline |url=http://www.deadline.com/2013/01/suspicions-of-mr-whicher-ii-pulp-on-xbox-itv-rebrands/ |title=Xbox To Premiere Brit Indie ‘Pulp’ |work=Deadline Hollywood |date=14 January 2013 |accessdate=14 January 2013 }} 4. ^http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/xbox-360-live-distribute-low-425854 External links
