Target Audience

Who would stand in a line to see your film?

• Gothic people (our piece has a gothic element to it)

• Females (it’s a film about women)

• Horror fans (maybe people into Slasher or Gothic horrors, similar to the teenagers in Scream 4)

• People who are into blood and gore.

Gender

We thought the most fitted and suitable gender for thetarget audience is girls because the protagonist is female so they can relate to her. The main gender for the target audience would be the female gender because of the links to insecurity which are linked to real life situations with teenage girls and this also makes the movie really relatable for teenage girls, despite the twist in the film, which is not shown in the opening two minutes of our media product.

We thought that males could also link into the audience with links to the “male gaze”, we thought that males would find an attraction to the female protagonist.

You don’t get many horror films with afemale protagonist

What do they wear?

We think that our targeted audience would wear gothic clothing and large, unfitted hooded jackets with band names, for example, on them. We think this would be a targeted audience because they are not mainstream and they appear to have some stereotypical insecurities.

Perhaps the female audience would wear quite a lot of makeup, similar to the protagonist of the film or maybe even more, this could be another link to social insecurities. We think this suits the description of our audience because they would be into horror films, and they could, in many ways link and compare to the protagonist such as the social problems.

Race

• All

• We don’t think our audience is specificallyracially categorised, however our protagonistcould insinuate that it is a form of racialcategorisation because she is of a blacknature.
