Audience research

I interviewed someone of my target audience, so I could see who i need to aim my film opening at. Although my target audience was boys aged 14-24, i interviewed a girl aged 17 who I thought would have similar opinions as it is the same age range. Although there will be a lot of action and crime in our film it will also consist of romance which is more directed towards girls.

This ident relates to our film as the ‘clank / whoosh’ we used to suggest our film opening has an interesting story line and is different as it is not the normal jingle. The use of the pink font and the grey background suggests that our target audience is not just men but we are also targeting females. In the first 30 seconds of our film opening we set the scene with an establishing shot walking through Covent garden, which confirms the romantic comedy convention used in most films nowadays. We were inspired to add the title of the location and time onto the shot, to remind the audience that this film opening although romantic, i...
