4. Who would be the audience for your media product?

Our audience is teenagers and young adults, within the ages of around 16-18, we have decided though that our film would be an 18 as we have made it gory by using make up. Our audience are probably going to be in college or in university, they would obviously like horror movies and probably spend their free time watching movies with their friends or going to the cinema and watching them. People who enjoy watching horror movies generally like the movies to have gore in them, which is why we have tried to get some gore into our movie. At one point in our film Olivia is relaxing on her sofa reading a magazine, the female members of our target audience would be able to relate to this, as they probably also like to sit down and read a magazine in their free time.

Our target audience is also mainly based around our peers and who we are at college with, we used them for our questionnaire (below) and asked their opinions on our poster, and so for feedback we are going to show them our film to see what they think about it. They are between the ages 16-18 which is part of our overall target audience
