1) The document discusses how the film attracts a younger audience by having a storyline similar to "Kidulthood" that depicts experiences of the 21st century that younger viewers can relate to. 2) It grabs viewers' attention through a murder scene at the beginning and builds tension through conventions like hero vs villain plots. 3) While not promoting the bad actions of characters, it addresses the audience by portraying the reality of teenagers sometimes getting into dangerous situations and warns of this increasing issue.

1. How did you attract/address your
audience?

2. I attracted my audience by my storyline being a little bit
similar to ‘Kidulthood', it appeals to the younger
generation who have probably gone through this
experience in the 21st century so they would relate to
the happenings in our film opening. By slowly letting
the audience take in our film opening, the murder
scene grabs their attention and they then want to see
more as our audience love the tension building plots.

3. By making sure we stuck to the conventions our
audience would be expecting like Levi-Strauss’ theory of
binary opposites, hero vs villain, good vs evil, - In our
film opening (Victim vs Murderer. By watching the
murder scene this attracts our audience because they
get excited for the action scenes that they know will be
definitely intense. Our audience are intelligent and like to
be challenged when watching a film

4. Our film also portrays what is actually happening
now days it doesn’t cover up the fact that
teenagers especially male youths are behaving
badly, they are seen by society as a threat
because of the way they don't listen and always
take matters into their own hands. To address
our audience our film is not in any kind of way
promoting the actions that the characters take
but warn the surrounding people that people do
get into situations like this and it is becoming
more and more often.

5. Our audience could also be friends and family and we
would attract them by informing them that they would be
interested to see the work we have produced. It honestly
depends on the actors & actresses as if they are famous,
people are more likely to go seen them. Also friends and
family have been interested in watching my film opening
because they have watched me work hard and
constantly gain feedback from others who have watched
my film opening and improved it because they as the
audience know what they want from a film opening in the
'Thriller genre’.

6. Our Title 'The Beckoning' refers to death calling the
murdered male character and the character warning the
female character of the circumstances. Our title is
suspicious, distressing and rather makes you feel jumpy.
Our film opening is similar to TV programs that include
social realism such as 'One night' on BBC1 or 'Top boy' on
Channel 4. My film is similar to both these TV series so
our audiences are probably into watching both our shows.
The films this Demographic are probably going to watch
usually have a Protagonist and Antagonist. Which my film
also has.
