Who would be the audience for your product?

The storyline to our film is basically two federal agents who work together as partners but one of them takes a bribe and becomes corrupt so his partner then ends of taking revenge on him by gunning him down while in the middle of a case and looking for suspects. This would attract a adrenaline fuelled audience with a strong interest in suspense and action.

From the beginning of the project we followed out the research tasks and from the questionnaires we tried to work and conclude on a target audience. In the end our target audience was varied from around 15-19 or older of both genders this help us in the producing of the film and the type of the scenes that we thought up to be in the film and whether we had to moderate them etc, the fact that we could appeal to both genders makes our film more appealing and means techniques used would have to of been to both genders taste to make it effective. From the questionnaire show that the age bracket generally that we got back was just over 20s this shows that the film should be rated at least at 15 or over if not then the film would not be appropriate to the audience. The age for our film has to be chosen carefully as it is essential for the content that our film contains is appropriate and effective enough on the audience.

Generally the feedback that we got about thrillers as a genre is films that are able to being different emotions such as high adrenaline, suspense, tension etc these are all emotions that we would have to create when filming the scenes in order to be effective towards the target audience so we tried to in cooperate these techniques into our film.

The techniques that most people believed are effective in thriller is the use of low key lighting as it helps builds the atmosphere and help create emotions like suspense etc, through the different scenes we would have to find the setting that fits for this if we chose to use low key lighting, in the film we didn’t use low key lighting at all due to the storyline and the way we introduced the film. We still thou made it effective through uses of other techniques like the setting and camera use.

The audience generally believed that the imagery was more important than the sound use in a thriller film so this shows for our film that aspects like the setting, costumes etc have to be good and stereotype to the genre into creating the right atmosphere and emotion when watching., These helped us take direction and inspiration to how we should do our film to make effective to the target that we will end up choosing so we chose effective music as well as made our imagery effective.



From the feedback over the types of techniques that people would use to make their film effective there was the use of low key lighting as, jump cuts, the shock factor to it and many more this gives us the idea of what the audience wants from the film to be effective and what they believe is effective in a thriller film so this is very helpful feedback to our group. So for our target audience we would strongly consider these ideas of low key lighting etc.
