locations and props that represent an every day life theme
■ However, I may also keep to the ‘indie’ theme by getting the characters to wear a
range of colorful clothes
■ I am also debating whether to explore themes of mental health in my trailer in order to
highlight the drama genre – within the disruption element of the trailer I may
introduce a theme of depression and emphasise this towards the end plot of the trailer
4. Target audience
■ My target audience will be was primarily females aged 12-25 with an interest in
romantic drama films. My secondary target audience was males aged 12-30 with the
same interest.
