The document discusses how the film's target audience was attracted and addressed. It did so by using typical romantic comedy conventions like the "boy meets girl" storyline that audiences are familiar with. It also made the characters and settings relatable by having a teenage girl protagonist and depicting her bedroom and school life. The film engaged audiences through bright pink titles in a girly font, upbeat pop music, and leaving enigmas at the end of the opening to intrigue viewers into continuing to watch.
2. In my opinion from making the film opening, what I
think attracted the target audience to like the film is
what they know what to expect from a romantic comedy
and it is clear from the beginning that it is going to
have all the typical conventions.
STEREOTYPICAL:
It will also include the narrative that the
audience is so used to seeing, which is
the ‘boy meets girl’ story line. Our
narrative is focusing on how the geek boy
likes a popular girl and he knows about
her bad grades so her tries to help/teach
her, he is just using him at the beginning
but then they fall in love.
3. We attracted them because our target audience will be a
similar age to the main character at aged 17. They will be able
to relate to her, by possibly having a similar fashion style at
the age and if they are the same gender.
It is also relatable by the fact that she is at school and having
to study because everyone who watches the film in the target
audience will be in the same situation.
RELATABLE:
The bedroom setting will be
something they are used to seeing;
if their own bedrooms aren’t
similar their friend’s bedrooms will
be because it is a typically teenage
girly room.
4. We engaged the audience by the colours we used, for
the on screen titles we used a bright pink colour and
they are in a stylish/girly hand written font.
The audience might be able to relate to this type of
writing, or it will please them because it connotes
the romantic comedy genre.
TYPOGRAPHY:
5. The music is very up-beat and has happy
connotations.
It is in the pop/rock genre which means that the
target audience will enjoy listening to it.
It might be similar to what some of their favourite
artists produce.
MUSIC
6. The fact that the titles stop right before the girl gets to the party
and as her bedroom door is slammed shut leaves the audience
feeling a little bit confused and intrigued.
They will also be engaged to keep watching because of any
enigmas that they might be left with form the ending.
These could revolve around the party:
will anything dramatic happen at the party?
Will she meet ‘the one’?
Is she dressing up so much to try and
impress someone?
Will she remain friends with the girl who
invited her or will there be some kind of
conflict?
ENIGMAS:
