Who would be the audience for your media product?

1. Q4) Who would be the audience for
your media product?

2. • Our target audience for the action component comes from the age range of 10-24
years of age whose occupation are either unemployed or in part-time work. They
can also be in education. Possible interests could consist of active sports which
challenges them on a physical level and enables them to explore and develop their
senses. On a stereotypical level, you could say that action films are merely aimed
at males however if it spurs their interest then females can watch them as well.
Ethnicity can cover a wide array however knowledge of English language is crucial
for this to be successful as communication between the film and the audience is
key. We targeted this group as research showed that people of this age range
usually favor our genre. In comparison to other action films such as Assault
on Precinct 13, Taken etc., our target audience can relate to our film as it explores
the darker sides of school life as well as family life which is something that they
can relate to. Overall, Films that my target audience would be interested in
watching are:
• Taken
• Skyfall
• End Of Watch
• Street Fighter: The Legend of Chung Li

3. For our Thriller component of our film, I think females of the same age range would
come to watch our film as they usually go for films that are mentally-challenging and
questions morals, in a stereotypical sense. Again knowledge of the English language is
vital for communication and interests would consist of reading or partaking in
mentally challenging activities .e.g. Sudoku puzzles . I think that our target audience
will be attracted by the amount of sympathy they will feel for Shamus and how
troubling the events in the film are/ would be. In comparison to other films such as
Abraham Lincoln the Vampire Hunter and The Cabin in the Woods, our film battles
with reality and uses real-life occupation, overall seemingly more realistic then these
fantasies even though it begins with Shamus’ fantasy.e.g. in Hide and Seek, when the
father imagines the wife killed herself when in actual fact he murdered her.However,
you could argue that it is not a fantasy as he makes it come true in the end. Films that
my target audience will have watched are:
• * xXx
• * Inception
• * Total Recall
• * The Hunger Games
Overall, Our target audience is quite broad.
