Evaluation Question 5

Age

We used many ways to address and attract our audience some examples where through age. Our characters in the film where of a young age and as our target audience is between 15-30, the characters where in the same age range in order for people to relate and enjoy the film more. The use of terminology really helped the audience enjoy the film as they where able to relate and understand what the characters where saying.

Here we see two of the main characters and they look relatively young the helped attract the audience we where targeting.

Genre

We also attracted the audience through the choice of genre, Through extensive research analysing opening sequences of other thriller films it gave us a understanding of what a thriller film included and the type of sound, camera shots and editing they use. from watching films like Taken and Gone Girl well known films with actors like Liam Neeson we where able to take ideas and make our own twist on the genre.

Location

Again slang is a big factor of why we would be targeting local audiences, people from England would relate to it more than a person from Spain as the way people converse is different and the slang that young people use is different, as well as this if a person is familiar with the surroundings in the film (setting) it would interest them because they can relate to it this really helped us attract our audience as they wanted to watch a film that they are familiar with the location and the surroundings.  I mentioned this in a recent post because feel its relevant to this subject as well.
