Within this post I will be showing you what age range of our Thriller will be for, and from preexisting films, what would be the best and most succesful
Below I am going to embed at least 2 examples of films that are similar to our thriller which is 15+.
Title - Secret Window
Age Range That is Most Popular - 15-24 (52%)
Genre - Horror, Drama, Thriller.
Secret Window although classified as a 12A, the majority of people who went to see was between the age of 15 to 24, and that is who we are trying to aim our film for. So therfore it gives us a good understanding of our target audience and helping us to create a good Target Audience Profile (TAP). It also helps us to understand what our audience likes.
Title - The Tourist
Age Range That is Most Popular - 15-24 (44%)
Genre - Drama, Thriller.
The Tourist again is another classified as a 12A but like Secret Window, the majority of people who saw this film was between the age of 15 to 24, and that is who we are trying to aim our film at. So this gives a great understanding of our target audience and helping us to create a good Target Audience Profile (TAP). It also helps us to understand what our audience likes.
This research is like our own thriller as in the films there are bits in them that are incorporated into our own film. They have the same suspense in their thriller that we have in ours. They create the same tension as we hope to create in our thriller, there are no scary parts like a horror has but there is suspense and tension. The age range of these thrillers is the same as ours so we hope to create the same effect as these ones do.
Using this information we are going to create a Target Audience Profile (TAP) for the perfect target audience for our film.
