WHO WOULD BE THE AUDIENCE
FOR YOUR MEDIA PRODUCT?
EVALUATION QUESTION 4
How I Researched My Target audience
I researched my audience in many ways:
 Analysing advertisements for a sci-fi genre (eg posters, websites)
 Public Feedback
 Research on surveys
 Analysed other sci-fi film openings
Advertisements
Advertisements on websites and posters were very good to gain inspiration
from, and definitely expanded our outlook on creating a Science Fiction
opening. We looked at their themes and how they used conventions to further
enhance the impact on their target audience.
I researched many sci-fi films to gain a wide ranged list of how to target an
audience. However, from research most films had a 15+ age restriction. This
implies that they are aimed for a adult audience.

Using Social Media
Social Media was a great part in knowing the interests of people and why they prefer different
film genres. Overall, I gained that a male audience preferred a sci-fi film rather than females.
Public Views
Mostly males preferred the sci-fi genre
because they liked the unpredictable and
more action experience.
Whereas, females preferred the rom-com
genre for the light humour and happy
endings. Furthermore, someone
commented I can kind of relate to the
storylines of some rom-com films, which
again reinforces the femininity of rom-com
films.

Evaluation Question 4
Using Surveys
This was hugely important in knowing my audience. Thousands of people
participated which gave a more realistic result in the audiences interest. This
was the main focus, when creating our audience. It was the main piece of
research which I focused on targeting. I think this was key in producing my film
as it gave it a purpose to aim at and to answer the brief in linking it to and
adult audience.
Overall I gathered that the ideal audience to aim for was an Asian, middle
aged male.
The Survey StudiedLinks:
Watching Film Openings/Trailers from a Sci-
fi Genre
Watching film openings help visualise and notice how film producers
manipulate the micro elements to link to the relevant genre and audience.
The films studied were all to a sci-fi audience. This was obvious to notice
though the heavily edited openings and futuristic title sequences. Meaning I
ensured my opening was similar to appeal to the similar audience.
Doing this helped me know the interests and emotions in what the audience
like.
Film ResearchLinks:
Lockout
Hunger
Games
Battleship
Titles from Science Fiction Films seem very dark and suspicious which
would appeal to their target audience (middle aged males) from the
unpredictability in what happens later in the film. This portrays my
resemblance of producing a title similar to Avatar. However, our colour
differs due to the potion.

How to Appeal to the Audience Profile
To appeal to the audience profile I had to try and include many of the aspects:
action packed, dangerous, adrenalin scenes, good looking women, fast cars,
and unpredictability.
From this research, I targeted to encode these emotions in my opening to link
it towards a male audience. Overall, I thought I included many of the
emotions, mainly I used fast paced editing to add excitement, which was
reinforced by the soundtrack. I think relating my film towards this profile went
well, however improvements could have been made, in have a female
character, and more danger in the interrogation scene.
