7. Interests of my audience
I think that my audience will probably
have an interest already in the book. They
may also have an interest in Romance
films.
8. Demographics
My target audience is teenage girls
between the ages of 13-21. I also think
they will be mainly American and English
due to the book being popular there.
9. Certificate
The Fault in Our Stars will have the certificate
of a 12A due to certain parts of the storyline and
also the fact that the main story of the cancer
may not be appropriate for younger audiences.
10. Purpose of the title
sequence
I will have the voice over of Augustus reading out the
end of a letter and we will be able to see Hazel being
pushed by a nurse. I plan to show the characters but not
entirely introduce them. I think that I will be showing
more of the story line and what the film is about.
11. Titles: Who and What
I plan to make my title sequence look very handmade and creative. I
want to use painted backdrops of space with different planets
dropping down from pieces of string to symbolise that not
everything is perfect and as it seems. I want the titles to either be
edited in so they appear on the screen or to incorporate them into
the backdrop by either adding them to string and dropping them too
or painting them on to the planets so that they appear at the same
time.
12. Sound
I think that I want quite a simple little
song. I think that I am going to make the
song very singer/songwriter and it is quite
minimal and I think that that fits the
feeling of the film. I also am going to
have the voice over of Augustus.
13. Practical Challenges
A challenge will be how, where and when I am going
to record the voice of Augustus for the voice over.
Another challenge will also be to get the actors in to
film as most of my filming will be done outside.
A challenge will also be getting the supplies and
creating the backdrop.
14. Desirable Response from
the Audience
I want my opening sequence/ title sequence to make my audience
begin thinking about the character Hazel and also what is going to
happen throughout the story.
Editor's Notes
I aim to base my film on the book The Fault in Our Stars. This book is a drama but also mixed with the side of Romantic comedy and I hope to be able to bring these genre’s through in my film.
My film is highly British but the story has an American owner which means that my film is not entirely British
