The target audience for the media product is teenagers because the main character is a teenager and teenagers could understand her emotions throughout the film more than any other age group. Both genders would be the audience as there is nothing excluding either gender, though women may feel intimidated by the male abductor and female victim. People from middle class families, like the victim, may also want to watch it more since they can relate to it. The main age group is teenagers, while older people and children under 12 likely won't watch due to the thriller genre and 12A rating.

1. Evaluation Question 2:
Who would be the audience for your
media product?

2. Target Audience
The target audience for our product is teenagers
because they can relate to our thriller the most
because the main character is a teenager and I think
that teenagers could understand her emotions
throughout the film more than any other age group.

3. Gender
Both genders would be the audience for our thriller
because there is nothing in our thriller that excludes
either gender. Although, the fact that our victim is
female and the abductor is male could mean that
women feel intimidated by our thriller. However, I do
not believe that this should affect who watches our
thriller and I think that both genders would watch it.

4. Social Groups
There are no particular social groups that would want
to watch our thriller however the victim is from a
middle class family, so people from middle class
families might want to watch it more because they can
relate to it more.

5. Age
The main age group that would watch our film is
teenagers because our thriller is about teenagers and it
is easy to relate to. Also, older people tend to not be as
interested in the thriller genre and so wouldn’t watch
our film. Children under 12 wouldn’t watch our film
either because we have rated our a film a 12A because
we feel that it may not be suitable for some younger
children. Although, being a 12A means that a 12 year
old can watch it in the cinema if accompanied by an
adult which means that we are leaving it up to the
parents to decide if the film is suitable or not.
