Task 5

Our general target audience was teenagers; there are certain elements in our film which appeal to teenage boys and girls in order to make our film more enjoyable for them.

In our thriller we have many elegant tranquil ballet scenes which takes our audience to a calm place of escapism, it appeals to the girls as ballet is something almost every girl has done, so it takes them back to their childhood which is a pleasant experience. We also have some crime/detective scenes which provides a tense 'edge of the seat' effect, giving the audience with cheap thrills and excitement it also appeals to the males in our audience as they will enjoy the action and violence.

We used an attractive teenage ballerina who appeals the girls as they can see themselves in that role, and they can fantasise about that, she also appeals to the teenage boys as she is similar age to them and contributes as a visual feast for the boys. For the crime/detective parts there will be some sexy police men and detectives which provides phwoar factor for the girls.

The ballet part is in a very plain studio so the audience focus' on the ballerina and her outfit which is fairly revealing, but not inappropriate so we are teasing the male audience, indulging them into our ballerina. For the crime/detective parts there will be dark and scary locations which is enjoyed by both boys and girls as this adds to the suspense, boys also enjoy the complex weapons like guns and the high-tech detective cars, girls will stereotypically be appealed by the 'men in uniform' and they will enjoy this.
