5. Target Audience –
We have decided to target our thriller movie to 15 year
olds because our survey showed that this is what most
people said they can see when we asked them on the
survey. We also know that for the most part that we
should base our movie on a crime thriller because this
was the most popular subgenre of thriller. We should be
basing our movie in the style of Shutter Island, Saw and
Taken because these are popular media movies.
Creative Ideas -
- Worms eye view to create clostrophobia
- Slow music and panning to show sadness with the
titles.
- Sergio in darklighting to show he is a force to be
reckoned with.
- Fading out to show title.
