5. How did you attract/address your audience?
Here you need to
explain why your audience would enjoy your film. Select detail from your film
to support your answer, including material on, for example, the story told
through the narrative, the use of camera, the use of mise en scene, the use of
character, the reference to certain themes or issues, and the use of sound.
Why do you think the characters help to target this audience? Perhaps
your representation fits in with standard stereotypes? If so, you will need to
discuss why this is, and explain why you did this. Do not simply describe what
kind of person your character is: description is not textual analysis, and will
not achieve a pass grade!
As
I said about the target audience, we believed the target audience age to 15 to
18. To understand what the target audience look for in a thriller film. We used
a survey/questionnaire website called Survey Monkey https://www.surveymonkey.com/ which
allows users from around the world to answer a range of questions of the
subject and give their opinion. Plus it would give us a percentage on what was
the best answer. To tell everyone about our questionnaire we would upload the survey
link to our social networks which were Facebook and Twitter so that family and
friends could give their opinion. This survey was extremely helpful as it told
us what the audience like about the thriller genre and what is needed to make
it the best. We would then use our results and edit or add improvements to our
storyboard. Below the paragraph here is what the audience thought.
By
using mise-en-scene we were able to make our thriller opening look
improved and give a higher amount of tension. In the sequence there were 2
locations: the woods which were filmed in East Grinstead and in Sophie’s dad shed.
The shed was a vital location set as it contained mechanical equipment and dust
which created the mood of enigma to the audience.
The costume for our protagonist was the basic
joggers outfit to give the idea that the innocent can be put in dangerous
situations. We used earphones as the prop so our protagonist was listening to
music that the audience could hear (diegetic sound). We also used old machines
to create a tone of tension that would be filmed as close-ups. The main reason
we chose our main character to be female was because stereotypically the female
charaters in horror are all ways seen as in dangerous circumstances
