1. Task 5 How did you attract/address your audience ?
2. Berika Mindeli Berika our main protagonist is 18, however he does look much older, therefore this helps us appeal to more women and teenager girls. Because he has distinctive eyes and brown hair, he would be seen as a sex icon which would help us appeal to women, therefore broadening our target audience. Berika also gives a stereotypical scary man look within the genre of the horror.
3. Alabama Jackson Alabama is our main female protagonist. She is 10 years old and her appearance is somewhat innocent which gave a stronger effect on our thriller making her look more vulnerable, with her blonde hair and skinny frame. Girls like this are usually used in horror films so she is in some way stereotypical little girl. This would make the older generation and teenagers be more sympathetic towards her making the film seem scarier and shocking.
4. Leith Hill We filmed out exterior shots at this spooky, old and derelict house. The house used to be an old boarding house a couple of years back and was profound for its ghosts and odd nature. The building itself is beautiful and was a perfect location for us to shoot outside. We made Berika walk towards the house, making it seem that he is going into it. This reinforces the typical look for a horror or thriller because of the look of the house and the fact that Berika is walking alone in the dark.
