The Target Audience

When you are going to create any sort of media you have got to take into account the target audience that you are going to be aiming your piece towards, in a 'film' scenario you need to think about who will be wanting to watch the media clip.

















Take into account

When you do think about your target audience you have got to think about what could change it:

  • The age of the person.
  • The genre of the film.
  • What is the Gender of the viewer.
  • Is it Violent?

We are making a film about a man comming through a door, walking through a classroom, sitting down and having a conversation with another person infront of him, this is aimed at our Media teacher Mr.Winn, children would not enjoy this in the slightest unless you add in things such as themes of what the people in the film are wearing and how they are speaking etc.

Because of this, i am going to be aiming my film project at an 'older' audience, Older teenagers and above.


Plan of the Project.

For my film project i aim to make a professional-type film that is for our media teacher Mr.Winn and aimed at an older age group.

The short film will only be around a minute and will involve two characters, one starting inside and the other outside, Person A (outside) will be filmed walking through a door and into the room, were he walks across the room, sits down opposite Person B (who is already in the room) and has a short conversation with Person B about something, Person A will then stand up and walk off.


Some film shots that i will aim to be using in this short film are :

  • The 180 Degree rule/Shot
  • Two shot
  • Match on Action
  • Shot Reverse Shot
The last section after all the clips i need are complete is i will transfer them off the camera and onto an Apple iMac and use iMovie to edit the clips and create the final video with all the clips for the deadline next week.
