EffectsQuestions 1,5,7,8,10,11 and 12 displayed clear preferences that the audience had; therefore we will be sure to include these things in our production.

We also obtained results, which were more complex and suggested our Target audience have an interest in seeing a variety of camera movement, shots lighting and dialogue in our production. For this reason we will take into account the most popular choices and we will ensure we use a number of shots, more dialogue but also sound, both Low-key and High-key lighting and movement in our production.

ContinuedOur audience expressed an interest in finding our product both Thought provoking and informative, this is because they are a sophisticated audience and want to be active throughout our production. Additionally they are aware that the characters in the film are merely media representations and therefore question them. For this reason we could adopt a documentary style to our opening sequence in order to please them.

Our audience informed us of some things that were unexpected, for example their wish to not only see our film located in ‘inner city’ but also on the high-street and in parks. For this reason we must ensure that we film equally in both of these locations. The audience requested these locations as they understand the inner city representation is a mediation of the working class experience and is a stereotype of a lifestyle.

Secondary Audience

As a group we thought it would be important to research our Secondary Audience (young people of the E income bracket) as they will find personal identity in the film and would therefore also make up a large part of the audience.

EffectsOur secondary audience were different from our primary in that they expressed an interest in a narrative involving bullying. However as our target audience expressed an interest in crime and pressure we have decided to use a narrative of a young person’s wishes to ‘fit in’, which leads to crime. This will therefore appeal to our entire audience. Both audience want a high level of verisimilitude as the primary audience are sophisticated and understand the stereotypes displayed in the media, also the secondary audience crave personal identity and wish to escape from stereotypes and see more ‘ordinary’ aspects of lifestyle.

Continued…The secondary audience displayed far more interest in varied camera movement (this is unsurprising because the secondary audience are younger and are Fox Thinkers, who would wish to see more movement). For this reason we will be sure to display variation in how the camera is held.

Continued….The results we obtained indicated that we needed to find a song that was both up-beat and rhythmic whilst also being more soulful. This is because our main target audience displayed more interest in an up-beat song and a small interest in a soulful song, whilst our secondary audience displayed a preference for both but mainly a soulful song.
