Who would be the audience for your media product?

The audience for our media project will be males and females with a age range of 15-25. The reason why we choose these was because of what we are includeing in our film for example the feeling of paranoia not knowing what is going on and your mind playing a range of tricks on you to put you off working out what is happening in the film. Also the type of language content we choose to use is quite vigorous at times and through out the lenght of the film the plot gets quite intense but it is still easy for a person of the age of 15 and up to understand what is going on and the type of language that is being used.

When we started to look at what target group to aim the movie at we was going to go with teenagers and their age range is about 12-18 but over time we soon realized that not all of them would want to watch something where they have to sit and work out the plot in their head, another reason was because some people might feel disapponted of they didnt see anything that they shouldnt see or anything fun happening like a party. So these factors help us as a group changed our mind about what target audience would make a more appropriate target audience.

 

Another factor of why we made this decision was because when we was asking around what film genre would be better they all said thriller and that they would preder to watch this type of film becuase they like the fact that they might get scared.We also told them about the genres that we was thinking about doing and they all said they like they fact of psychological thrillers and the fact that you have to try and figure out what is happening and what is about to happen. With them helping us and giving us feedback it made the choice of picking a genre a lot more easier than choosing as a group.

 

With Our target audience around use liking the fact that we had listened to them and choose psychological thrillers and with this choice we founf out it is a easy genre to do and also you have a more dramatic effect on people when doing this genre and it has a bigger impact on them. The language and the plot of the story fitted our tagert audiences thoughts and they all said that we made the right decisions and overall it looked like we did a really good job with the final product with the sort of language we used.
