1. Who would be the audience for your media product?
Out of all the magazines I looked and ‘Slant’ was the magazine I felt our film would fit the most. This magazine
reviews films, music, TV shows, DVD’s and games. The reason why I think our film would be reviewed in this
magazine is because there is a wide range of different films reviewed. Some are well know and others are not.
This works well for our film as its not well known and would let people know about the film and whether its
worth watching or not. The magazine is designed for people interested in films, the latest music, TV shows,
new DVD’s and games which will attract readers that are into these things. The magazine is addressed to male
and female which is a good thing as our film is more of a girly film but males may read the review and want to
watch it. Males may not find out about our film if it was put into a girly film magazine because they are not
likely to read it and our film could come out to being more of a unisex film than a female based film. The films
included in this magazine are not usually the films that have huge posters everywhere you look but does
include a few of them. It’s mainly films that you don’t hear about or have not had millions of pounds spent on
them. This is perfect for our film as it will draw in the people that like watching one of movies that people have
made without spending loads of money. This could be good for us as our film has been made by a 3 young
adults and hasn’t had millions spent on it. Also this magazine is full of a range of different genres of films some
more people are likely to see it.
If you found out your best friend was going out with your ex would you go to drastic measures to show how
you feel. Best Of Friends is an exciting crime thriller with twists and turns along the way. It’s directed by
Georgia Thompson and is inspired by the 1992 film Single White Female and 2011 film The Roommate. Two
best friends meet up at one of their houses but little does Charlie know Natasha is not happy that her best
friend is going out with her ex. One thing leads to another and the situation gets out of hand. Natasha beats
and blackmails Charlie until she’s so weak she can’t take anymore. Charlie sacrifices her love for Chris
(Natasha’s ex) and leaves him for the good of their friendship. Best Of Friends is perfect for everyone. It’s a
situation that many people find happens in teenage life. This film seems to be aimed towards females as it is
about best friends and boyfriends but is perfect for all you crime lovers as it takes hatred and anger to the next
level. Its very well put together, has a clear story line and really makes you want to carry on watching. On the
down side it gets into the story quite quickly which isn’t very popular but other than that the story is very
exciting. The film is very similar to The Roommate which came out last year but the story is slightly different.
The psycho friend is still in it but the situation they are in is different. If you enjoyed the film then this is
definitely the one for you and if not its one to watch.
