Who would be the audience for your media product?

Straight from the beginning, we showed that the genre is going to be a thriller but also going to be about youths. The beginning shows a black male about 17, blacked out from head to toes, which sort of symbolises danger. Using a female of the same age shows that something is going to happen between them but she isn’t going to be a dangerous person as she is dressed casual, like a normal person on a normal day so the audience knows that its either going to be that they were going to meet each other or something is going to happen, and the closer they got the more the tension built up. The fact that he isn’t looking at where he’s headed while he’s walking on raises the tension even more and then switching to her and seeing the she isn’t looking as well shows that they are both going to collide and this is what will raise the eyebrows on the faces of the audience as the question the audience will be asking is what is going to happen next?!

It is kind of this movie as it is kind of the same looking at the different ethnic groups and backgrounds in it, so hopefully it will attract all the different people just like this movie did. Again this movie can be compared to our movie but again it is a lot more violent than our movie is.
It could either be that they will like each other or which is normally what happens, and this is why we changed it because normally a mixed race girl is seen to be normally liked by boys so they would anticipate that he would like her and when they see it is going to be the exact opposite, this will hopefully shock them, and this will then hopefully drag them into the movie more and make them want to know what happens next. This is done to try to bring in viewers of other genre, but it will b too late to stop watching after they have seen part of the movie because they will be too drawn into the suspense already.
Although the movie was made up to be for a niche audience, looking at the characters and the storyline and everything about the movie, I think it will go beyond our expectations, going to become a movie for a niche audience. One of the reasons am saying this is it could also maybe grab the attention of the older viewers, this is because of the therapist in the movie, she is older than everyone else in the movie and she is quiet formally dressed and appearing to be trying to help, she could be seen as the mother figure to the very disturbed teenager, which is what tends to happen to people when they have been through such traumatic events, anyone and everyone is always there for them to try am make them feel comfortable and help.
