5. The Characters
The target audience for our opening sequence are the
same as the characters of Jessica and Sarah. We knew
who our target audience were, and we wanted to have
some characters similar to the target audience, so they
could relate to those characters.
We also wanted a character who the target audience
could sympathise with, thus Millie, a young and innocent
girl whose world has come crashing down.
Millie is seen as a stereotypical girl but her life is a lot more
difficult than most girls her age. Millie is portrayed as a
positive stereotype and she is the protagonist of the film.
Jessica is not a stereotypical mother because she has
abandoned her child and is missing. Jessica is portrayed as
a slightly negative stereotype because she has left Millie,
however we do not know the reasons why.

6. The Actors
The actors which we used to play the roles of Sarah and
Jessica are a part of the target audience for our film. The
target audience for our film are middle class, British
females, aged between 18-35. We made sure that the
actors we chose had a non-regional, British accents
because the class of target audience are not associated
with a particular regional accent. The target audience can
relate to the characters because the actors playing them
fit into the same stereotype.
