Question 4 - Tom

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


Our target audience is an audience aged around 12-16 of both females and males. The reason behind this is that we decided it wasn't distressing or gory in a way it would be inappropriate for our target audience. Another reason we chose this target audience is that we feel they are more likely to watch thrillers than other age groups. The reason why I feel that females might also be interested in watching it is that the protagonist is a girl, and in most thrillers it is usually a guy.

I think that our chosen audience really would have enjoyed our thriller as it keeps them guessing with the foreshadowing opening. And the fact it is shot from two perspectives as in the protagonist’s and the antagonist’s.


Transporter 3

Transporter 3 directed by Oliver Megaton is a fast paced action fuelled thriller which has an age rating of 15. Although our thriller doesn’t have any action as such, it definitely builds tension which the transporter does also.


Zero Dark Thirty

Zero Dark Thirty is a suspense thriller with a lot of action and tension that is directed by Kathryn Bigelow. It has a age rating of 15. Zero Dark Thirty also features a lot of handy-cam camera movement and some unusual angles which we also tried to create in our thriller to build suspense and make it more interesting to watch.



Argo

Argo is a drama filled thriller that builds it’s tension using fast paced shots and sweeping angles during tense scenes. It is directed by Ben Affleck and has an age rating of 15.
