Part 6 – How did you attract/address your audience?

Starting the film of with some disturbing images of a dead young woman has attracted our target audience. This is a good attraction towards teenagers as it is not seen a lot in real life and is a shocking view to be looking at. I believe that we have reached our target audience due to the different characters involved and how they have been presented to the audience. This is because our audience gets to see an average girl and a different boy to an average, showing them the range of people that live in this world, and the varieties of different natures of different people. While planning our production the first dialogue is one of the included things that appeals to our chosen audience. It includes the accent of a younger London generation coming from the male and the female being girly. 

Looking at the feedback from the target audience is very easily seen that the target audience is the age that we have chosen to target it to. This is seen by the way they write as well as the younger London generation accent/slang being used. The feedback given appeals a lot to our audience as the fact of them finding it successful proves that the chosen target audience is correct. 

Two people have mentioned how the time lapse has worked successfully, which is rather pleasing, as something natural has attracted the teenagers. Also, as some people have watched this title sequence with me, they have made a few comments on the very start of the title sequence, saying how the photos at the very beginning accompanied with the sound work rather well together. Also others have said that the white flashes are rather eye catchy and make you want to see more. All of these positive comments make me believe that the target audience age range has been correctly chosen.

A girl has said that Leila invites Danny too soon as well as Danny speaks to Leila too soon. She also said that there is no sound at the very end dialogue. However, Danny wants to get to know Leila extremely quick for him to get closer to her and do what he does best, torture people. Leila being a nice neighbor offers some help if any is needed. At the very end of the title sequence there is no speech for the audience to want to find out what the talk was all about and keep watching the film.

Somebody said that the only thing that gets in the way of our title sequence being less successful is the wind noises, however I personally think that this diegetic sound works rather well with the title sequence as you can tell what the weather is outside and make yourself feel like you are part of the movie.

The work could be improved by using a much better quality camera for the shots to be clearer. Also, the dialogue could be improved by recording it indoors and over righting it on top of the video, as it is not that clear. Maybe more places could be used for filming as only one road has been used. For the pan right shot the car could have driven over hills and a long shot could have been included to show that Danny is really moving from far away.
