Evaluation Part 2

Evaluation Part 2: Target Audience
The target audience for our film primarily is:

o Male (Which are more likely to watch horror films than females)
o 15 - 30 year olds (Which is the age range most likely to watch horror films)
o The demographic for horror thrillers is a wide range that covers all demographics but films containing elements of psychological thriller like our film may not appeal to the E or D class of unemployed/unskilled because they generally required you to think about it instead of just being all action.

The age certificate for our film will be 15, horror and thriller films are generally 15 or 18 because of adult content like swearing, violence, sex, distressing scenes etc. We would rate our film 15 instead of 18 because there is no sexual scenes and the violence is minimal and not gory or over the top. Other films we have looked at also have similar age ratings, for example The Purge is rated 15 and so is Insidious.

To research our audience we looked at ratings for other films, like the ones we were inspired by, and also by researching age ratings in general, most horror films are either 15 or 18 and we saw that the elements that our film/title sequence contains would only make it a 15. We also looked at graphs and charts that show ages of people that watch horror and thriller films and applied this to our own.
