The document discusses strategies for attracting and addressing the target audience for the film "Ready Or Not". The primary audience is teenagers aged 16-22, particularly girls. Marketing for the film would play on people's curiosity and not reveal much about the plot. Scenes showing typical couple photos and a character smoking are meant to make the audience feel they recognize and relate to the characters. A shot of a female character expressing anger is intended to make the audience sympathize with her. Unique camerawork is highlighted as something that adds to the film's disorienting effect.

Evaluation question 5
Our primary audience would be teenagers aged 15-18, who can relate to the main character. A secondary audience would be teenage boys going through similar issues as the vulnerable male protagonist. Another secondary audience would be fans of drama genres who appreciate verisimilitude and lesser known films. While the themes are universal, the film's small scale and British rural setting would likely resonate more strongly with a British audience.
Film Pitch
The film pitch is for a low-budget social realist/crime/drama targeted at teenagers. Titled "Work Hard, Play Harder", it will depict teenagers throwing a house party that descends into chaos when party crashers unexpectedly arrive and fights break out. By using an unknown cast in a realistic setting and exaggerating real experiences for entertainment, the film aims to attract a wide audience through its unique blend of genres while promoting on social media like the film Spring Breakers.
detailed research into Target audience
The document analyzes the potential target audience for the film "Letter for Tom". It finds that the film is primarily aimed at a female audience, as romance films typically attract more women. Additionally, the film's female authors and lead role played by a woman would make it appealing from a female perspective. The target age group is identified as young adults who can relate most to the main characters who are in their early 20s. Finally, the film is aimed at a regional audience from Barnsley where it was filmed, allowing it to appeal to locals and represent the Yorkshire area truthfully.
Evaluation Question Two
The document analyzes how different promotional materials for the fictional film "The Deprived" helped promote the film. It discusses how the poster uses critical quotes and taglines to intrigue viewers. The film magazine spreads awareness of the brand through its splash page and features an interview that may provide context and drive re-watching. While the trailer has limited space for explicit promotion, it is an important promotional tool, using shocking footage, the release date reveal, and hashtags to engage audiences. Overall, the consistent branding across the poster, magazine and trailer helped promote not just the film but its brand as well.
Evaluation question 4
- The target audience for the film is primarily males over 35 from social class C2, and secondarily females over 35. Black African/Caribbean and Eastern Europeans may also enjoy it.
- The film is rated 12 due to mild language, violence, and references but no drug use or offensive content. This rating appeals to both younger and older audiences.
- As a fantasy/thriller hybrid genre film, it has elements of both surprise and magic to attract a mainstream audience enjoying both genres.
- Reasons the target audience would want to see it include its suitability for family viewing, its sense of escapism, exciting magical elements, and appeal of a young girl antagonist.
Evaluation 4
Our target audience for the media thriller film is students and adults aged 15 and older. We conducted research into similar thriller films and the BBFC age rating system to determine that a 15 rating would be appropriate for our film due to its depictions of strong violence and threats to the protagonist. We created profiles of our target demographic groups, which are primarily working class individuals with spare time to socialize and watch films. Our psychographic profiling found that the ideal audience seeks thrilling and suspenseful experiences that keep them on the edge of their seats. Films with similar conventions would appeal to this group.

Kill List Poster Analysis
This poster analysis discusses the key elements of the movie poster for the film "Kill List". It notes that the rusty title font suggests dangerous and murky motives of the characters. Critic quotes promoting it as "nerve-shredding" and "awesome" are meant to attract audiences. The display of awards won aims to present the film as prestigious in order to increase revenue. The sole credit for director Ben Wheatley is meant to draw his cult following. Symbolism in the imagery, such as the trees and pagan emblem, imply a disconnect from reality and that darkness will prevail. The poster intentionally reveals little of the plot to intrigue viewers.
Evaluation: Q5
The document summarizes how the film poster and release date for "Killer Affairs" was designed to attract different target audiences.

Winter’s Bone Poster Analysis
A Movie Poster Analysis, in this case I analyse the poster for the low budget feature "Winter's Bone"
Question 1
In What Ways Does Your Media Product Use, Develop or Challenge Forms And Conventions Of Real Media Products?
Chick flick pitch
The students wanted to make a chick flick film for their class project that would be interesting yet approachable. They propose a plot where the main character falls in love with another girl after moving to a new town. This would challenge conventions by having a same-sex relationship as the central storyline. The film aims to still be relatable to a wide audience like traditional chick flicks through humor and addressing how love can be experienced across different sexualities and genders.
Infensus 1.0
A group of teenagers discover old footage of human experimentation from the 1950s at an abandoned military camp. They go to investigate and accidentally unleash the zombies. The film aims to attract young adult males through relatable teenage characters, fast-paced zombie action, and an abstract soundtrack. It will be independently produced and distributed primarily online through websites like YouTube to reach a wide audience.
Question 4 draft 2
The target audience for the media product is 16-18 year olds. This age group can relate to and empathize with the teenage main characters. Having creators and characters of the same age means there is a deep understanding of appealing to other teenagers. Both male and female teenagers are targeted by including strong and capable characters of both genders that break stereotypes commonly seen in thriller films. The primary ethnicity targeted is white British, reflecting the creators and characters, but the story should still be relatable to all. Sexuality is not a focus, so all sexual orientations are included in the target audience. The target audience would enjoy thrillers and be interested in popular culture references included to make the characters more relatable.
Unknown film poster
This film poster for an unknown thriller film provides key information about the film's genre, characters, and plot. It prominently features Liam Neeson holding a gun in the center, signaling that he is the main character involved in violence and a fast-paced car chase, as suggested by the vehicle in the background. The poster depicts the main character as dangerous and serious through his costume, lighting, and the prop gun. Unlike most posters, it lacks film credits but includes a tagline that gives away parts of the narrative along with the visual clues.
Evaluation 4 and 5
This document discusses strategies for targeting and attracting a young adult audience aged 15-28 to a media production. The target audience enjoys thrillers, comics, and books with plot twists. To attract this audience, the production uses techniques from films like Taken, including low lighting and POV shots to build suspense. It also discusses promoting the production through related apps, music soundtracks, and by gathering feedback from a target audience focus group.
Question 4
We have decided to target 15-30 year olds for our film since they make up the majority of cinema goers. However, focusing on this niche art house market means our film will only be shown in select theaters like the Phoenix that cater to smaller audiences. While this age group will relate best to the younger characters and genre, targeting them exclusively risks limiting our audience since most people in this demographic tend to follow mainstream options instead of art house theaters.

Reflective project #2 example LUTHER
The document describes a movie poster that was found dissatisfying because it prominently featured the main female character's large breasts, implying that to be a "perfect soldier" or heroine requires being sexually appealing above all else. This undermines the potential message of empowerment and sends the problematic implication that a woman's worth is defined by her breast size. The advice is to make the poster reflect the actual film and character more accurately without unnecessary sexualization that could impact young viewers.
COMM 101 Reflective Project #2 Media representation example LUTHER
The document describes a movie poster seen at the theater that was dissatisfying in its portrayal of women. Specifically, the poster for the movie "Ghost in the Shell" prominently featured the main female character with unusually large breasts. While the movie aims to portray a powerful female hero, the poster reduces her to a sexual object defined by her physical appearance above all else. The writer believes Hollywood can promote strong female leads without resorting to unnecessary sexualization.

Evaluation 5
- 1. EVALUATION 5 ACTIVITY- HOW DID YOU ATTRACT/ADDRESS YOUR AUDIENCE? AS Media Albiona Ramadani
- 2. GENRE The thriller genre of this film is popular with young adults and teenagers. The dark mystery of this film helps teenagers relate more as within this age group, they are most likely to feel much more down and topics that challenge ideas within the society helps teenagers relate better as they usually see the negative side of society especially since teenagers are stereotypically bad and selfish people. The surprise that the audience experience within this film is due to the mystery of real theories that people are discussing amongst themselves. Those that know about it, will most likely become extremely interested in the film as they know about it and may lead them to believe in it. Many will become aware of this and will react by having further research about this theory and this encourages them to create their own theories about this or other issues and topics within society.
- 3. MUSIC The dark sinister music that is played throughout the opening of this film, will make the audience anticipate the worst possible thing that could happen to the character. The high pitched synthesiser creates a distorted feel which makes the audience intrigued almost as though they’re hypnotised as the repetitive music plays making them feel as though they are in a never ending cycle that they find it hard to escape from. This music also helps the audience feel how the character feel, down, depressed and scared. This way the audience are able to easily put themselves in her shoes.
- 4. PRODUCTION COMPANY Scorpio Productions mostly attracts a younger audience as the films the produce are mostly, thrillers, and teenage dramas. Due to this the audience will already have trust in the production company which means they will most likely give this film a chance as they are aware that it will appeal to their age group and preferences. Scorpio Productions is also known for producing films that are different to any other. They usually focus on real matters and opinions that the younger generation will have and use the films to portray them and allow their views to be seen by everyone else. This production company is also known to produce films that are dominated by teenage and young adult actors which makes the audience believe them more as they can relate much better to the story.
- 5. DISTRIBUTOR White Lantern Films is a UK independent film company that produces and distributes films. The main genres that they distribute are psychological thrillers such as K- Shop. This will be popular with the target audience as they favour thrillers and rather than waiting for a new thriller to release by bigger distributors, they will search for others especially independent. Many teenagers watch White Lantern Films as they are different and not the typical thrillers that people have had enough of. As this films is a different thriller, it will be increasingly popular with teenagers seeing as they will give this film a chance seeing as they trust in this distributor and their choice in films to distribute.
- 6. DIRECTOR AND STARING ACTORS The director for this film is Dan Pringle. I chose him because he is not very well known hence it will work in favour of the low budget film. However, the film he directed K- shop, was popular amongst thriller fanatics as it was a unique film so the audience that loved that film will know they can enjoy this film too as the thriller genre is very evident in a different way than most are. nagers, he will bring enough publicity for the film and the audience will find it intriguing to see how
- 7. REPRESENTATION The way that I was able to attract my audience is due to the representation of them within the film. Due to the use of the familiar setting of London, there is a curiosity for the audience as they feel like they have some involvement with the film because of their age and where they live. As teenage Londoners are not proportionally represented within films, this will stand out as it is different and the audience do not feel as though they are being forgotten. Usually teenagers are shown to be white and living in fancy homes in America, which makes teenagers lose interest as they know that is not how they all live, a film such as this that show the real side and lifestyle of a teenager is much more appealing to them.
- 8. VISUAL The low angle shot on the floor shows that the character is very important. This helps establish to the audience the power that a teenager has as her feet are only seen within the frame. However in this shot, the audience may believe that this character is a villain as her feet are within the centre of the frame, which is unusual in a thriller. The over the shoulder angle helps the audience focus on the poster and see what the character is looking at. This helps them become the character themselves as they need to read the contradictory statement.
