Target Audience
The Target audience for our film are young children/ Teenagers aged 12-18, demographic E ( students and the unemployed). Both Genders. After consideration and previous research into other films and mainstream and niche audiences.
We have decided that VIRAL TERROR is a Mainstream film. and would be suided to a Mianstream audience, who like well branded things. From this point we also discussed the type of Distributors that we would need to reach a mainstream audience.
From this discussion, we decided we would want Lionsgate to produce and distribute our film. Lionsgate have previously done the film Cabin in the Woods. Which came with a unique production title, as they changed the colour palette to fit the films nature. This ade it stand out and made it more unique for a target audience to recognise.
In this image Lionsgate have changed the colours of there original logo, to dark red to show its a horror film. When my group was deciding how w would show we were producing a horror film, we changed the back ground colours to dark purples, blacks and greys.
We also changed the name of the production company to DARKARTS. This is so the audience can recognise that we produce dark films, which are Horrors.
Summary: our target audience is E (students) aged 12-18. We have met our target audience by using teenagers like themselves and having something exciting and mainstream, which would be distributed by a well known branded company, which would draw them in and make them want to watch
