Evaluation Question 4

Who would be the audience of our media product?

The target audience of our film are young males, with age ranging between 15-25, these people would enjoy movies from the thriller genre and also possibly action adventure and and horror films also, this is because our film is predominantly a thriller film but also have action and horror elements within it. Our target audience would enjoy other films such as: Taken, Sixth Sense, Memento, Pulp Fiction and Brick

The audience of our thriller film would be more likely to be and English/British audience as as they would relate to our product more than someone from America or Australia, this is because of the different cultural idiosyncracies that may me that they would not behave in the same way as the characters whereas a British audience is more likely to behave in a similar way. Not only this, a British audience would recognise places form around where they live and can also understand stereotypes that are associated with different areas.
Another film that our target audience may enjoy is  Kidulthood this film is a drama that predominantly attracts British audience due to all the main issues within the film can only really be related to by British audiences and therefore (like our film would) had very little interest in it from other countries like America.

Another factor in Kidulthood that meant that it would only have a British target audience is that, like our film, it is set in England and the British audience can relate to the situations in certain areas and this would not be achieved buy audiences in different countries.
