Audience: The importance of them.

A key factor of any media related article is 'who is the intended audience and does it appeal to them?'
To help us see that we have shown our film (in its current stage) to other members of the class to see what they think. Also this Friday we are supposed to be having someone  drafted in to give us a talk about the topic and give us ideas on how we can engage the audience further. Our audience were teenagers to young adults, the people we asked were aged 15- 18 so they were a relevant audience. They all said they liked the film and found it quite atmospheric.

We went around school and asked various people aged 15-18 what kind of music and colours they would expect in a thriller film, the majority all said we should use dark colours, haunting music with plenty of suspense in the film to create atmosphere. We did that and our film is quite effective thanks to using their recommendations. here is a copy of our questionnaire we produced to help us gather information.

  1. You will need to write a post on the initial responses of your audience.

    I would also like to see a more detailed one based on the talk you were given about audiences. Who is your audience? What have you learnt about audience and how could it apply to your film?
