evalutation task 4 - Target Audience

The target for our film is ages between 15-30 year olds, mainly because of the violent and bloody images in it, which makes it unsuitable for young teens. However, it is more appealing to the older range as it is relevant to events taking place in the world, such as politics and in the government. The genre is a thriller and is similar to the film ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’ so it would appeal to people would had also seen this, and the television series ‘Spooks’.




The film is orientated around top secret government information being accessed by a female hacker and sent to a client. Our film will draw in younger people because of the technology aspects of our film, as the hacker is dealing with hi-tech technology which teens will find interesting and appealing. Also because of the high extent of violence in it, it will attract boys but also because it is a female hacker it means that many women will also be more likely to go watch it.

The secondary audience will be the over 30 bracket, this is because although they are aware of current events occurring in the world they may not be exposed to adverts and trailers for it as they are not seen as primary audiences. Also they may not appreciate the violence in it, although some males over 30 may still find it enjoyable but you will find fewer women over 30 will watch it.




Our film should appeal and draw in both males and females equally to a certain extent because there are aspects that will appeal to both genders. For the males there is the excitement of the chase and the violence, and for women they will appreciate that the man role is a women who is it seems stronger than men.
