Evaluation Task 4 - Who is the target audience?

- we have made a fake facebook account for a 19 year old called Chris Turner, his interests are horror and thriller movies and he loves going to the cinema to see friends, his favourite type of horror is with an explanation of what is happening.
- we feel that this particular person is our ideal target audience as it the average age of gamers and all of  his interests listed imply his love for horror films and the quotes and one liners as shown by his quote from the Shining.

pie chart:

- the pie chart shows that from the age ranges asked going from 18-40 it is clear that a majority of 18-20 year olds would watch the film and that it clearly appeals less to the older generations e.g. the 30-40 years olds.



IMDB film profile comparison:


-The main target audience is late teens to young adults who enjoy a good horror and thriller as well as the thrill of watching a victim who they want to see be killed, this could include teenage girls as the victim is a male which would then imply that couples would go see this together as the girls would make their boyfriends go in case they get scared
-the secondary audience is anyone who enjoys a good thriller and/or horror that will see our movie and is less focused on the victim and more on the kill, this could include the more violence enjoying older generation

-People would most likely see our film on gaming consoles such as Xbox and Play Station in order for it to reach a wider audience range for less as it would sell for roughly £4-£5 depending on the console. We wouldn’t use a cinema as our film is too low budget and wouldn’t make the money back but we will take the film to festival such as the BFI London film festival and we can also raise money to take the film to festivals such as Sundance or Cannes. Ideally we would like young adults to watch it or people in their early twenties who would want to watch our film as it is a niche market for our type of thriller that portrays a certain social realism of modern day teenagers as it not only shows what they are capable of but the situations that would arise. Audience like this kind of sub-genre as it is an insight into crime and how easy it is to get away with if you know the right things to do.
