Audience Profile

Our genre is a horror thriller therefore it has the elements that may be incorporated in a horror film but with more of a build-up and made to be more intense to fit into the genre. The typical audience for our horror would be teenagers to adults, due to the genre it would be more inappropriate to have any younger audiences watching. The audience of teenagers would perhaps be more likely to watch it due to the cast and just in general with films, teenagers and younger adults are prone to be more aware of current films coming up. As well as the fact that the audience could relate more to the plot of our film its more relatable than a supernatural film, there is a small chance that it could happen to any individual therefore it creates more fear. However despite this, from the results of question 7 it is shown that a horror thriller aren't very demanding which is why they are aimed at younger adults to teenagers. The psycographic we are targeting is main stream plus, as they are looking for 'good' films and can range from different genres. In comparison to main stream as they specifically focus on romance or action-based mainstream films. The key characteristics for our audience to be up to date with films and what is happening in the media. Our age range is for teenagers to young adults therefore they are expected to be into social media and be able to update their profiles/statuses on things they enjoy for example the films and their opinions on them.
