Possible Target Audience

I think that our target audience is most likely to be males. This is because our thriller is quite fast pace and there are also elements of action within it which I think would be more likely to appeal to a male audience.

I have already researched some films that have inspired ours and that I think will be quite similar to our final product: 

These are films that I think are much more likely to appeal to a male audience who are interested in mysterious, thrilling and action based films. A lot of these films, like ours, have a male villain (antagonist) which i think will also appeal more to a male audience. Our film adheres to the stereotype of a female being weaker than a male because we have a female victim. This is quite a well known format in films, especially action films and thrillers, which stereotypically appeal more to men.

I think that our target audience will be around 18 years old and probably go up to 30's. I don't think that our thriller would appeal to teens, however many of the similar films are a 15 so it could appeal to a younger male target audience.
