Evaluation question 5

Here the question is 'How did you attract / address your audience'? I will look to explain things such as, if I did any audience research to help my thriller appeal to my target, and what is it about my thriller which attracts people.

To answer this question I used a range of techniques. The first thing I did was create a questionnaire earlier on in the development of my film, this helped me as it outline what to aim at such as, gender, sub genre, ages, and plot. Here is a link to the questionnaire and results.

Overall what I believe I found was that younger people are attract to action and tension, whereas more older people attract to the thriller characteristics and atmosphere.  Here is the video of the interview;
