Who would be the audience for your media product?

I imagine the audience viewing our film as being young guys, the kind of person who is intelligent enough to understand the psychological elements of our film (as it is a psychological thriller this is a necessity.) However the target audience also appreciates the smaller british films, so perhaps they are into media or film, maybe they do english as well. We adress these aspects by being a very low budget british film, this is also shown through the unknown actors we have used. Also our film is produced by vertigo films, who specialise in making low budget british films (they also do some thrillers,) this makes them the perfect producers for our film.



Our target audience also has a tight knit group of friends, we have therefore made our film accessable to all (it has a plot line that everyone can understand) this means that our target audience can watch the film with his friends. Our target audience is about nineteen this will be adressed by making the film an eighteen, this features adult themes such as violence and sex, this makes the film very mature, like our target audience. This matureness also comes through in the storyline of our film, which can be complex at times, it is meant to confuse the audience in order to display the characters mental state (however all becomes clear in the end making it accessable for all mature audiences.)
Ryan Rooky (pictured above) is an 18 year old student, he does maths, art, IT and COPE, he is very interested in independant films produced by smaller companies, films like; "The Disapearence of Alice Creed" and "Hurt Locker". He and his friends work very hard at school and are all aspiring to be a high demographic in later life (A-C1), Ryan himself wants to go into IT or possibly the editing business.
Ryan spends his spare time in the gym and at Air Cadets, he contributes to the community as much as he can in his remaining time, he also likes to go to the movies with his friends at the weekend. Recently he has enjoyed films such as "Shutter Island" and "Inception", these thrillers are both psychological and are very in tune with Ryans lifestyle and choice in movies.
