Blog post #16 - The target audience

 When creating a film, one of the things someone should consider is who is the target audience to their film? This is something that I considered while thinking about the process of creating my project. After researching the target audience for crime genre films I found out from www.slideshare.net that a good estimate of the targeted audience for crime genre films would be late teens to early 30s. The crime genre also appeals to people who enjoy films about solving mysteries and enjoy the action aspects that come from cops catching criminals.

The targeted audience for my film is late teens to early twenties. The reasoning for this is because the actors for my film are near this age and the plot of my film seems to appeal more to younger audiences than older audiences. My film will also target people who enjoy action because of the action aspect of the protagonist wanting to put an end to D.L's crimes. The target audience for my film is a little different than the target audience for the crime genre in general. This is because my film appeals more to the younger side of the age bracket of the target audience of the crime genre than the older side.

This is because having better production skills can make a film better and more entertaining. Without good production skills, a film may not look very realistic, and a film might not be as entertaining as it was originally intended to be.   Production skills can range from anything between having good camera shots, having costuming that fits with the character s role, adding proper score and sound effects, recreating sounds as re alistic as possible with foley, and having props that fit with the storyline.   My production skills have developed in beneficial ways while working on this project. Before filming my project, I originally didn't have much thought on the importance of score in films and before I filmed, I thought I wasn't going to use score. After filming my op ening scene, I...
