Who would be the audience for youre media product?


The implied audience is teenage boys and girls, roughly around the ages of 17-20. We gathered this imformation from the original questionnaire we used to gather information on the horror genre. The fact that the main characters are all young makes it appeal to a younger audience, and hopefully this age range will relate to the characters and their situation of moving into their first shared house. Another plus side is that there is already a large target audience of people that enjoy horror, for example it is a popular genre for couples to go on a date to watch, but also once released on DVD a popular genre for groups of friends to watch on a night in.

Ellen Jones is a 17 year old girl, she enjoys going to the cinema with her boyfriend/friends, she goes roughly once a week because she likes to take advantage of orange wednesdays. In her free time she goes to Sixth form and socialises alot. When going to the cinema she mostly chooses to watch horror, as new and improved trilogys such as Saw are being brought out more often, and she likes these films. When at home, she likes watching DVDs with her cousin and sister these are mostly chick-flicks as they are feel good films that include characters of around the same age that are good looking and fashionable, which she enjoys. Watching Horror DVDs is also one of her favourite things to do, especially with her boyfriend.
