Our target audience for the supernatural horror film is teenage boys aged 15-19, as we can relate to them and want to appeal to what they want to see. A secondary target is young adults aged 20-35 who also enjoy the genre. We chose to rate the film a 15 based on the ratings of the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), an independent non-profit organization that has classified films in the UK since 1984 according to age categories based on a film's violence, graphic content, or language.

2. Our Target Audience
When we started we had a primary target audience of teenage boys
between 15-19, then we decided our film should be rated a 15 based
upon the BBFC. We chose the younger audience as we could relate to
it and put in what we would want to see but also because horror are
more appealing towards teenagers.
Our target audience is also the primary target audience for a lot of
supernatural horrors such as Sinister and the Possession.
A secondary target audience would be young adults aged 20-35. This
is because they would be able to watch our film because of the age
rating and that horrors would still appeal to them as they have grown
up watching them and are used to the advances in technology.
