2. Age Rating
• My audience feedback showed me that 66.6% of people
thought it would appeal to young adults/ teens.
• Interestingly however adults aged 30+ said that they would be
more likely to continue watching it.
After viewing the guidelines of the BBFC, it
is clear that my film would most likely be
rated a 15 due to the violence and gore
factor.
3. Psychological Thrillers
Memento which is a famous
psychological thriller was given a
15 rating by the BBFC making me
more confident that my film

In order to get an idea of the
audience viewing my media product,
I created an anonymous survey in
which I asked 6 questions about my
title sequence. In which I got replies
from people varying from age 17-72.
My target audience was young
adults/ adults as from my research
on psychological thrillers, I found
that they often appealed more to
people who were older as they are
more intellectually demanding. As
well as having more disturbing
subject matters.
5. Gender
• Psychological thrillers are said to appeal more towards
women, hence why I decided to place a women as one of
my main roles.
• This is because there is often less physical conflict which is
generally used to attract to men.
• As well as this it has more
emotional and mental
conflict which tends to put
men off.
6. After watching this how likely are
you to watch the rest of the film?
My survey showed me that
those less likely to watch the
film (5-7/10) were generally
younger and teenagers. This
helped me realize my
demographic, and further
reinforced that psychological
thrillers were generally for older
audiences.
