Evaluation Question 5

How did you attract/address your audience?


Our target audience is young adults/ teenagers so around 14-18 years old. We wanted this age rating because it is prefect for a thriller because it allows use to do a lot more fighting or scary scenes because of the high age rating and it was prefect for what we was trying to achieve, also it is a lot easier to make a film for people who are or around the same age as us because know what we want to see in a film and why we want to go and see it. Our rating will be a 15. Most thrillers are rated 12a and above because of what a thriller has to include, a lot more teenagers watch action thrillers what both of them are but due to the 12a rating of ‘the hateful eight’ it is unable to bring out as much action as it possibly could. I think a 15 rating is prefect for our genre of thriller. I think a lot of aspects of our film can bring in a audiences, and the main reason is because it relates to people. It may not completely relate to them but they can relate at parts of the film even something as small as acting the same. we wanted the film to relate to teenagers so that's why the boy and girl are the same age as our target audience and they are wearing what you expect teenagers to wear and are acting the same way too.

this is a poster we could possible use for our film , I think posters are the best way to get people to hear about the film because posters are everywhere and it only takes a look to see the title and it can get people interested and then they normally go and watch the trailer or read up about the film. Also because of our small budget we can just put theses up everywhere and people will hear about the film instead of having adverts or something, also we can get the poster across websites. I think the poster has to be good to get people interested about the film and I think the title is the main part because even if they only look for a second they will know the name of the film and that's why I put it in the middle in a big font. another way to draw in a audience I to get people talking about it on social media , for example the film 'suffragette' didn't have the biggest budget so what they did is got a lot of people talking about it on twitter and so it came a lot more popular. I think our film could do the same sort of idea and maybe even start a trend with a # and have it relate to the film.
