All films are aimed at a defined audience this can be related to age, gender, interests, and socio-economic classification. For instance a Disney film will be aimed at children between the ages of 3 to 10 and will be aimed at both male and females. The interests will not be overly important as it is made to entertain children of all sorts. Also the socio-economic classification does not come into this film as most children will enjoy the film.
Our film titled edd’s dead baby suggests it will be based around a death of some sort which means the film will be of a dark nature. This means that the targeted age of the viewers will be 15 years old and older. This film will be mainly aimed at a male audience due to the nature of the film but could still be viewed and enjoyed by female’s as well as the thriller genre is such a widely enjoyed genre because the storeys usually involve some sort of love interest and can be very emotional and take some thought. You can participate in the film by trying to work out the murderer before the truth is revealed by the end of the film.
People that this film is aimed at don’t really need any sort of interests related to the film because it is aimed at a fairly large audience and will interest people that want to be entertained more than anything else. This film will apply to people who fit into C2 – E in the socio economic classification spectrum due to the nature of the film and the age group that this film is aimed. this film i would say will mostly apeal to males from the age of 15 to 40.

Brook - a good start. Can you be anymore specific in regards to the age range of your audience? Is a 85 year old man just as likely to watch it as a 15 year old boy?
