Who did we aim our film at?

Age Range 16-25Region - YorkshireGender - All

The reason for choosing 16-25 age range is that this the main age for people to go to a cinema. This would then give the film more of a chance of making money at the box office. Also the age of the actors and setting and theme is more age appropriate compared to an over 60.

This film is not aimed at a gender it is a film that can be watched by all. The genre horror is liked by all gender.

The reason our film could appeal to Yorkshire people is that this is where the film is located and also the actors that feature from. Also there is relatable crimes for example the Yorkshire ripper.

Film Certificate

Certificate – 15 The certificate that we have chose for our film was 15 as it features violence with the use of blood that features on Liam when he is laded died. There is the use of drugs in the form of cigarettes which shows there is use. Also there is the use of threat and horror that feature throughout. This use of the film certificate is also contributing to the target audience that our film is age at. (16-24 years old)

Audience Research

When researching audiences for the horror genre I found that the main age of horror film goers are at the age range of 16-24.- The reason for this is that they enjoy watching horror films because they like to

experience new feelings and also experiment with the different emotions that can be used in a horror film.

- The use of unnatural images which can feature in a horror film don’t put of the 16-24 age range compared to an older audiences.
