• This sense of familiarity with the characters will appeal to our target audience and draw them to our film.

• Aspects like the blog in our opening sequence, helps attract our target audience as this is something many young people use and are familiar with.

of an older generation who is not as active as a younger person.

doesn’t take away from it’s excitement. • Therefore our target audience would be people who

lead an active life and enjoy trills and sitting on the edge of their seat whilst watching a movie.

and on roller coasters.
