How did you attract/address your audience?

Research and Planning

Before we started filming we made sure that we pitched our ideas to the class group and interviewed our target audience (Females and Males under 35) who we received extremely viable answers and what exactly they thought about thriller movies. We did this because it seemed like the perfect way to see what exactly people would like to see and what exactly they would be expecting from our movie.

 

They were the biggest influences of our final decisions because we found out that not all our ideas made sense, were similar to other movies, we didn’t have the resources to contain the production, etc. and this let us make the necessary changes to ensure that the movie would appeal to our target audience.

 

 

 

 

 

What questions did we ask?

1.      What’s your favourite movie from, the thriller genre?

2.      What do you like best about thriller movies?

3.      Who’s your favourite actor/actress from thriller movie?

4.      Do you watch thrillers regularly? And why?

5.      Would you choose thrillers over any other genre?

 

 

 

 

Why these questions? What did we get from it?

The first question we asked was what their favourite movie from the thriller genre was, we felt this would be a useful question because we thought that it would make it clear that the people we were interviewing knew what a thriller is and so that if they couldn’t come up with anything we would know that they’re answers would be viable.

And this is why we asked majority of our questions because by asking these kind of questions we got positive answers like for example by asking them the sort of thrillers they liked watching it meant we could pull elements out of those films and we could compare our opening to it because if ours has those element there’s no way our film won’t be loved.

By asking these questions we were trying our best to avoid thriller clichés which we completely achieved also we didn’t want it to be predictable because we knew that our audience would get bored easily. Finally we didn’t want our film to mistakenly drift off into the horror genre so we needed to make it clear to ourselves as well as the audience what a thriller was.

What did we include in our film that would have intrigued/excited the audience?

When we had finally collated our research we came up with more ideas and minor details which we could add to our opening and would also keep the audience on the edge of their seats. From the interview we knew that the opening had to have maximum enigma to keep viewers watching and since it’s a convention it made it even better; we included the use of make-up i.e. blood also the most exciting thing I thought was the music because it keeps you wondering what’s going to happen next or what scene is it going to switch to because we didn’t have a particular sound.

Where would you promote your film?

When we were doing our research we realized that for our target audience there some certain forms of advertising that would be a waste of money and time because not all over 35 males and females have Facebook, twitter, will go on YouTube, etc. So we have decided to promote our film through other means of communication like newspapers, magazines, radio, news channels, etc. We would also try and make posters and stick up around like public transport and streets so when they're like driving to work they would see them.Because these are the types of media that people of that age group actually pay attention to.
