Who are the target audience? habits/lifestyle/media consumption (not just/age/gender/skin colour) What pre- production research did you conduct with them? (Questionnaires, Result Graphs, Audience Profile) How did you use it? (Pretend that the film you developed was in response to the target audience profile you developed in your treatment)

  Who are thetarget audience? • The target audience for our film is age 15 up. We chose this target audience as we thought people around that age are teenagers and will often watch scary and thriller films with the friends. However we chose the certificate 15 as the film does have swearing in it and scenes of violence and therefore any younger children may find certain scenes disturbing. The gender of the target audience for our film could be male or female however due to the strong female characters throughout the film, I think females may be more likely to watch the film as it portrays friendships just like women friendship groups do.

  What pre- productionresearch did you conduct with them? • The preproduction research which we did was a video questionnaire. For this after we had chosen our film storyline we went round and asked a variety of people who matched our target audience questionnaires on our film and what they think we should use, for example; sound, where the location should be and also what age they thought the target audience should be after had told them the storyline. • The feedback which we got back was very positive and the majority matched our ideas, so therefore this made us use these in our film so that we knew what the target audience would want from a thriller film. • Here is a link to our Video Questionnaire https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPirZ83-NIk

  How did youuse it? • We used the pre-production research to influence us on how we were going to plan our film and the locations which they suggested we researched to see whether they would suit our storyline, many suggested woods as they are dark and add tension to a film. Therefore we used their suggestions and adapted them to our film, so we were showing that their suggestions benefited us.
