How did you attract/address your audience? evaluation 5
f
What the final focus group said is that they wanted to watch on and see whats happening next. We have gave the audience that and left it with the audience thinking what is going to happen next. What the audience want for the location is somewhere that looks abandoned, which gives the audience thinking on where this location set. We have giving the audience on what they wanted and shot this opening sequence in a abandoned building which i thought the establishing shots was amazing and so did the audience.
One of the questions we asked was that "can you still clearly understand the storyline" there response was very positive as they all said "yes" and also we can tell there is a a lot off mystery in the opening sequence. The genre is quite clear from all the canted angles and the sound in the background this is most likely a very stereotypical horror film.
In order to engage the audience there has to be suspense. According from the final focus group response, our final opening sequence is what the focus was expecting, so this is a success for us, and they would also love to continue watching this.

Evaluation Question 4
Who would be the audience for your media product?
As we research about our opening sequence before filming, we had many idea's on what genre
to do this in. As a group we ended up to do this in horror so we had to do a focus group
and find out with other people in the public what age will represent this. However instead
of the focus group we also have done a question air to ten people of the audience to find
out what age would this video be suitable for. This is what the questionnaire we have done
to the audience looks like;
This has gave us a idea as a group on what age to do. The target audience is between the
age of 15 to 30 years off age and this is more directed to the male instead of female because
we feel that men have more of a threshold for fear. The social demographic we are targeting
are those who fall into the categories of C1, C2, D and E, this is down to the fact of
that we believe that they are more likely to enjoy horror/thriller films.
This is a video of our focus group we have done before doing our opening sequence
to get ideas from different people of the public to know what target audience this
is suitable for.

What kind off media institutions might distribute your media product and why?
Film distribution is when the media companies attract an audience through the use of media technologies therefore there is a larger profit margin and more awareness. They will use this is cinema's when showing adverts on the screen or even on poster and on the TV. An example of this would be when advertising a family film, they would not place a trailer just before or even after a rated 18 as this is not the correct audience to do this. Also they want to be unique as possible so their distributions stands out and also is remembered.
There are some pacific companies that are well known off using distribution and that is Warner Brothers. They are one of the worlds largest film companies with a huge amount off money to spend, not only on the film but also making it a distribution. They are also aware and well known that the audience know that this would be a highly well made film.
One way how the Warner Brothers distributed and also thinking how to attract a larger amount off audience. An example off this would be the film 'Hangover' and the reason off this is that is the target audience is teenagers and young adults and to get their attentions they would advertise this on Facebook and other social networks because this is there target audience. They engage their audience by doing quiz blogs and photographs and clips to engage there audience. Companies such as "Shutter Island" and other types off horror films will be suitable for opening sequence.
