Evaluation question 4


                   Who would be the audience for your media product and why.


When looking into our themes and genre conventions we came across many ideas of which we wanted to use in our pre-lim and our official. We also looked into the different themes so that we could appeal to different age groups. We felt that thrillers appeal to many different ages, but mostly young adults and teens. 

One of the reasons that we chose to appeal to young adults and teens is because that is also the age range of the actors, as they are 16/17 years old themselves. The element of thriller is used well in our scene as we had a protagonist and an antagonist, this was important for us so that we could use them against eachother and somehow create binary opposites.

After finding out what age group we wanted to appeal, we then had to research what their ideas were and how we would make our scene interesting to them. We did this with 3 different questionnaires and it gave us a big insight into what we should and what we should not include. As the age group we were appealing to were the same age group as us, we also took that into  consideration as to what WE liked as well. 

Our secondary audience are older adults, as older people also like to watch thrillers and we feel like our story line could appeal to all. However we feel like our target audience is perfect for us as we could also link other parts of what we researched to the scene.

Finally, i feel as though we have created our our thriller perfectly in the way  of target audience, secondary audience and in conjunction of narrative theory.
