Many aspects of our opening appeal to our target audience. One of them being the storyline, where a person is bullied and commits suicide as they can't take it anymore. This links to our target audience as most bullying happens at a young age. This does not mean the audience was bullied so it attracts them to the film but instead it means that they have an idea about it so they me be interested on what happens.
How Did You Attract/Address Your Audience?
Another way that we are appealing to our target audience is that our actors/actresses are all teenagers which will attract the audience (teenagers).
I think the distribution company helped us appeal to the other half of the target audience which was people that watch horror, this because Platinum Dunes is known for the production of many successful horror movies, such as the purge.
So far we have reached our audience very well, the choice of genre was very good as its a very common genre for young people. Using blogs to reach our audience was a great idea as teenagers use blogging sites so reaching our to them through blogs wasn't' hard.
The rough cut feedback helped us to improve our film, as we realised it was too short so we added more scenes and we also improved the scenes we already had.
Formats - DVD
Other than our target audience we may have attracted another audience group we didn't aim for, this may be because our distribution company Platinum Dunes is very successful so people may want to watch our film for that reason.
What My Audience Think About My Title Sequence?
My audience thought that it was amazing and it was eye catching from its first scene, some also said that it got them to the edge of the seat and just furious about whats going to happen next. It matches up with what I thought what they would like as I thought the editing was very appealing and effective. Their feedback taught me that to attract the audience its all about the creativity, and how effectively you use it
