Evaluation 4- Who would be the audience for your media project?

Psychographics

Interests: Most teenagers like to spend their free time going out with friends and it is common to socialise by going to the cinema where they would chose a film that they would like to watch. As our film is categorised with in the teen-angst genre, we feel that teenage girls (13 years+) will be able to relate to our characters. We also believe this as the film is from female perspectives.

The music that we use provokes happiness in the audience but also keeps them intrigued as it becomes more serious.

Teenage girls are attracted to relatable characters, therefore, we have created a sequence that every teenager has been through: getting ready for a party and being betrayed.

Beliefs: We want our audience to believe in this verisimilitude world, as if they are in the characters shoes, experiencing what happens in the narrative. We also want our audience to know and be aware that our film is a teen-angst and they find it easily relatable.

Values: Our teen-angst opening sequence needs to have various camera angles to introduce the settings and characters effectively. As the setting is being introduced, we have a diegetic bell ringing and nature ambience as sound effects. After the first part of the sequence is complete, upbeat music will begin to play as the production logo and titles come up on screen. This will create a positive feeling for the audience as the sequence continues.

Demographics

Age: Our target audience age range is from 13 year olds to young adults of 21, however, the film is more likely to attract a younger audience as it is of the teen-angst genre. This is because we feel that you are more likely to struggle with friendships and school when you are younger rather than older, therefore being more relatable for a younger audience.

Gender: 'Gossip!' is mainly aimed at females as the characters are both females.

Class: Our teen-angst will be mainly aimed at semi-skilled and unskilled manual workers (blue collar class) as well as unemployed, students and casual workers. This is because younger teenagers will not be able to get a job.

Race: Aimed at all races.

Geographical Location: This will be aimed mainly at England.

Our teen-angst follows two female characters that are protagonist as the audience only sees the situations from their perspectives. We think that our target audience age range is reasonable because it covers the whole teenage years.
