How does our Thriller opening appeal to our target audience? [5]

As earlier stated, our target audience was people aged between 16-20 and of both genders. I believe we have successfully appealled to our target audience through using several different techniques.

Firstly, the soundtrack to the beginnning of our Thriller opening is a modern upbeat track that most people of the mentioned age to could relate to listening to; by using a song that our target audience can associate with it automatically draws in thier attention.

Secondly, we also added a large amount of suspense to our Thriller opening, drawing a younger audience who get more excited at Thriller films containing a lot of tension (see target audience questionnaires)

We also used actors of around that age group, yet again giving the audience something to associate with, as if putting them in the shoes of the character more easily and drawing them in quicker.

Lastly, our Thriller opening contained no extreme violence, only mild nudity, no sexual references or bad language, and no horror scenes of which may disturb a young audience. By keeping these above topics to a mild degree, we make the Thriller viewable to a younger audience.

Also, due to the fact the protagonist was male, and no other females seemed to feature within our thriller opening, we kept the villain masked, therefore suggesting it could be female, and maybe then drawing in a female audience also.
