The target audience that we have chosen for this film is that of 16-24. This is because our film focuses on the life of a teenage orphan and we believe that this age group
will best relate to this character and his story. Furthermore making it appeal more to people of this
age group. The film also seeks to have an impact on our viewers therefore by having a character of the same age group as our target audience will allow the audience to
empathise with the character.

The way in which we seek to promote our film will be
through word of mouth, posters and a cover page magazine. We have chosen to promote my film this
way due to lack of funds and also we feel that this will be an effective way of reaching a large audience
preferably our target audience.

Todorov– This film seeks to challenge the conventions of Todorov’s theory asthe film will follow a different structure of disequilibrium, where the characterwill begin in a state of unbalance and desperation and then move to anequilibrium where he finds a balance in his life and finally a resolution inwhich he fulfils his goal of success.
Barthes – The film will greatly use the conventions of Barthes theory in whichit will include elements of narratives codes for example the enigma codeallowing the audience to question why the character is so eager to besuccessful?, what happened to the characters real parents?, why did he runaway from his foster parents?
Hall - In our trailer we hope to incorporate texts to support the scene beingplayed to the audience. Hall came up with the reception theory, which statesthat texts are encoded for a specific and preferred reason. Hall also states thataudiences ‘negotiate reading’ as they modify, select and discard parts of thetext based upon personal experiences etc.

We would like for our audience to be active as we want them to see our trailer and really empathise with the character.
Also we want them to be inspired to think about their own dreams of success and how they can incorporate these seven
steps to their lives.
