The document discusses the target audience for a film called "Thanatos". It aims the film primarily at 15-year olds and older due to graphic violence and language. However, one particularly dark scene would not be appropriate even for 15-year-olds. As a result, the film rating would need to be changed to 18+. A typical target audience member is also described as a white, middle-class male college student who enjoys thriller films and socializing with friends through activities like skating and camping. Additionally, "moshers" are identified as a niche target audience since they enjoy non-mainstream media.

The document discusses choosing an independent distributor called Revolver Entertainment to distribute the filmmaker's psychological thriller. Revolver Entertainment is an established independent company based in London and Los Angeles that has distributed similar films targeting audiences ages 15-24. The thriller's target audience is also people ages 15-24 since the protagonist is a 17-year-old studying for her A-Levels in college. Independent distributors are more likely than major studios to distribute films with smaller budgets to the UK and Europe.thriller

To attract their target audience of 15-24 year olds, the filmmakers cast young, attractive actors that this demographic could relate to. They designed the female detective to appeal to male viewers with her attractive, femme fatale character dressed in smart, casual clothes and red lipstick. There is also a romantic subplot between the two detectives to engage female viewers. Additionally, the opening scene features graphic crime scene details like blood and props to draw in young male audiences interested in thriller and crime genres.Media characters

The document discusses targeting different audiences for a film project:
1. A middle-aged policeman actor would attract audiences aged 25+ as well as younger audiences who enjoy films featuring older police characters. Having an attractive older male lead also aims to attract female viewers.
2. A teenage female protagonist is intended to attract teenage girls who can identify with her, as well as younger male viewers who find her attractive, helping to broaden the target audience.
3. Three teenage male characters are meant to appeal to both younger male viewers who can relate to them and female viewers who find them attractive.

The document discusses targeting the audience for the film "Dealer's Atonement". It suggests that the main audience may be male as the antagonist and hinted main characters are male. However, the representation of males in the opening could be seen negatively as very dangerous and psychopathic. This may attract female audiences who are shown in a more positive light. An 15 age rating is proposed due to the concept of a psychopathic killer murdering someone, though no graphic violence is shown. Partnering with Miramax could target fans of their suspenseful crime thrillers who like getting drawn into films for escapism through suspense.Question 4

The document discusses how a horror movie media product would represent different social groups. It would likely appeal most to goths, alternatives, and indie subcultures due to its dark nature. The target age range is 15-30 years old as younger viewers may find it too disturbing. Males may enjoy the action elements more than females. Lower social classes from C1 to E would likely identify more with main characters and watch more than higher classes. The film avoids religious or cultural issues to appeal to all ethnic groups. Having a female hero is unconventional for the genre. Releasing around Halloween would mimic the successful strategy of similar films like The Conjuring to target youth audiences.Target audience

The main character Danny, an 18-year-old college student, gets beaten up by a rival gang called the "City Psychos" on his way to a match. He is saved by another gang called the "UC" and begins to spend more time with them, neglecting his education and friends. Over time he fully immerses himself in the hooligan culture, stealing things and cutting ties. The final episodes would show his friends trying to save him from this lifestyle before it's too late.

Our primary audience for the media product is teenage boys aged 15-19, as research shows they prefer action and thriller films more than girls. However, a female sniper character is included to also attract female viewers by reversing stereotypes. Young adult males recently finished with university are also a target audience. Feedback from 16-18 year old test viewers confirmed they enjoyed the opening thriller scene. Boys aged 13-19 particularly enjoy cars and guns, both of which are incorporated into the story through a Mustang car and a high-quality sniper gun. The violence level in the thriller places it at a BBFC 15 rating, allowing for some strong violence but not dwelling on graphic details, similar to the film American Sniper.Party Police Pitch

The document discusses the BBFC film rating categories of 12A, 12, and 15 in the UK. Films rated 12A can contain mature themes, discrimination, soft drugs, and implied sexual violence. A 12 rating applies to films suitable for ages 12 and up. A 15 rating is only for those age 15 and older and can contain strong violence, language, drug use and sex references without graphic detail. Examples are given of films such as The Dark Knight Rises, Taken 3, Iron Man 2, and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire being rated at the 12A level due to moderate fantasy violence with little detail.

As the film was made by teenagers aged 15 and up and stars actors aged 17, it may appeal to other teenagers. Those over 40 may not connect with the storytelling style. Violent and strong language content means the film is rated 15, making it unsuitable for younger viewers.

Our target audience for the film is 15-35 year olds who enjoy psychological thrillers. This age group has disposable income and many grew up watching similar films. As the film was made by teenagers aged 15 and up and stars actors aged 17, it may appeal to other teenagers while still interesting older viewers. Those over 40 may not connect with the storytelling style, and those over 60 are unlikely to be interested due to a lack of interest in horror genres. The film is targeted more towards males than females based on typical genre preferences.Question four media

The document discusses target audiences for horror movies. It finds that teenagers, ages 15-25, are the largest audience segment. Horror films often feature teenage protagonists that younger viewers can identify with. Additionally, research shows women watch more horror films than men, so including female characters, even in victim roles, helps target that demographic. Based on these findings, the document concludes its target audience for a new horror film should be 15-25 year old males and females.Evaluation Question 4

The film opening targets a specific audience of 15 years of age and older. It was classified as a 15 rather than an 18 due to adhering to 15 rating conventions regarding violence, language, sexuality and other content. While both males and females may enjoy the film, it is possible that some females will be drawn to the love story elements at the beginning, as love stories traditionally attract mostly female audiences of around 85%. The film opening was designed to appeal to general horror film audiences while also potentially attracting some females.Target Audience

Our target audience for the film is 15-35 year olds, as the psychological thriller genre appeals most to this age group. This age group has more disposable income and grew up watching similar films. As the film was made and produced by teenagers aged 15 and up, it may encourage other teenagers to see it. Those over 40 may not connect as much due to differences from older films, and the violent and strong language content makes it inappropriate for those under 15. It is unlikely those over 60 will be interested due to a general lack of interest in horror and violent films among older audiences. Based on a Facebook poll, the film will likely attract more male viewers who tend to prefer violent or action films, compared to females whoQuestion 4

The film has been rated BBFC 15 because younger audiences may find the content inappropriate or psychologically disturbing. While it could have been rated 18, the filmmakers felt 15 was more suitable. Teenagers aged 15-18 are the target audience as they often enjoy horror/thriller genres. The film is also aimed at adults aged 15-48 who may find the sensitive content interesting. Two teenagers, Kimberley and Danny, fit the target criteria with their interests in films like The Conjuring and are therefore likely to enjoy this film. Some reviews from the target audience praised the film's realism, suspense, and shocking ending.Audience profile

However, the proposed storyline was noted to have some issues such as the deaths not being connected, a lack of puzzle or motive, and certain scenes like the lesbian tent scene being unrealistic and over the top. The discussion highlighted areas that would need refinement to develop the thriller concept further.

Thrillers involve a battle between justice and injustice that often results in consequences. They are films of suspense that reinforce elements of pursuit and chase. Thrillers can take many forms but commonly involve a growing sense of threat and the excitement of pursuit. They are usually shown from the protagonist or villain's point of view to generate empathy or guilt. Events allow the audience to second guess what will happen but explanations are never complete to maintain mystery and build suspense. Typical roles include a helpless female in need of rescue and a male hero battling the situated evil through revenge or anger.

Who would be the audience for your media product

Q4:Who would be the audience for your media product?<br />-918210262064555740301460555206901226185-107061014605-10706101226185My target audience for the film Thanatos is primarily based on 15 year olds both male and female. The reason why its a15 is simply because with the film containing violence, strong graphic and strong language I thought it was essential to target people in the region of 15 years and above. Personally I felt it would not meet the film certification if the film was to be rated a 12 for instance, due to; dark, strong graphic which is persistent over a period of time for e.g. The cellar scene, hence why it is subject to a 15 film rating. Moreover the Abney Hall scene contains blood which is inappropriate for viewers below the age of 15 due to blood appearing quite deeply on a characters face. All in all we decided in the end a 15 will not make the film certification so inevitably we had to move it a notch up which would then make the film an 18 film rating. Our initial plan was then compromised due to the group specifically targeting mid teenagers 15 years and above. However this was not to be as we noticed the cellar scene was to dark and horrific emotionally for any one of the age of 15 to view. <br />56045106985We felt with the film being a 15 we would attract a much larger audience as oppose to an 18, however this was not to be and we had the choice of either downgrading the graphic and violent scene or moving it to an 18 rating. However, ultimately time proved too costly and we were unable as a group to downgrade the film to make it suitable to a 15 rating due to it being time consuming. <br />Typical target audience would be a middle class male of a white ethnic origin. His first name is Adam surname Johnson. Single child. A college student who is an under graduate in Sussex, currently studying Media and part time Law at Gilford University. He currently works part-time at Tesco on the tills. Adam enjoys watching films whether it be horror, thriller, comedy etc all genres. However he would be keener to watch his favourite films which are thrillers but at a low documentary level... not as popular i.e. wont be shown in the cinemas. Hobbies are to chill out and enjoy having a laugh with mates socialising. Likes to skate and regularly enters competition across the U.k for Skating competitions. Enjoys organising trips, mostly enjoys camping and rowing. Enjoys the regular visits to theme parks but prefers to camp. Influences mates to come out. His dream career would be: Formula one racing driver, Pilot or to travel around the world as a journalist and then to eventually right his own book about his experiences in life when travelling around the world. <br />My niche target audience would be Moshers. This is because Mashers stereotypically are seen to watch movies related to our thriller. As their niche group Moshersenjoy something different from the mainstream media. Moshers are seen as people who are not so serious, and are seen as friendly people who enjoy their way of life through numerous ways, for e.g. skating. Norms and values are different from the mainstream, Moshers form their own sub-cultures and have their own set of norms and values. Some Moshers may break and go against the mainstream Norms and values while the majority are people who are perceived to have a high percentage of social life and like to party always active.<br />4396740251777514744701774825163830913765<br />
