Question 4
Who would be the audience for your media product?
The audience that will be attracted to our product would be mostly teenage boys since that is the most likely audience to be interested in sci-fi films that are based on video games, however that doesnt not rule out everybody since it is a film for any audiences.
It could also attract children which is why we have made it 12A film, because this means that parts of the film can still include slightly voilent or scary content and at the same time under 12 year old can watch it with the accompanyment of an adult.
The only sort of audience that I feel would respond and react to our film in a positive way would be the younger audience as the storyline is quite a basic storyline that is for teenagers, although it does have scenes that are dark and could be considered frightening or violent. I think that the audience wouldnt be adults as they would usually watch more mature films with older actors and more serious roles.
The film is also more for boys because of how the film is based on video games, sci-fi and tech and stereotypically boys are more this kind of stuff rather than girls. I think that our film doesnt appeal to female audiences so I think that if we got the chance to remake the plot and whole film, we would add a sort of love interest because this would make the whole film appeal to a wider range of audiences and therefore more people will watch it.
I think that the type of audience to watch our film would have the personality of an explorer, they are young, have energy and seek adventure which fits with our film, I also think that watching our film would allow people to experience some escapism from reality as the film is fictional, beacuse of this i feel that it could also appeal to the 'Struggler' group of people because it would make them feel as if they are away from reality when watching it.
I think that the profile of them can also range from upper middle class to working class as i feel that all these people, no matter what their social status is, can enjoy and watch our film.
