RESIT-Target Audeince profile for your new film

A demographic audience profile defines groups based on things like age, gender, income, education and occupation.
a-upper middle class
b-middle class
c1lower middle class
c2-skilled working class
d-working class
e-Those at the lowest level of subsistence

Thriller Movies could be aimed at any of the letter codes above. This is because it has such a wide audience. However some Thrillers do not appeal to all audiences as there is many sub-genres within the genre, such as a psychological thriller may not appeal to the E code as they could be less educated if they are unemployed so would not see the appeal in a psychological thriller.

Thrillers are usually aimed at more mature viewers. The film Se7en aimed its target audience for over 18's and so was the Silence of the Lambs, this is due to some strong language and adult content. Some films are more suitable for a younger audience such as Jurassic Park and this is still a thriller however the content is more suitable and children still get scared watching this.



I am going to target the audience with a demographic of C to D with the hope that the film will sell online and as DVD's but it probably wont hit the cinema as we are an independent production and aiming for a niche audience. The target age range would be 15 to 30 year old and I will appeal to this age because the actors will be this age and we will include content that the audience can relate to such as cars and supermarkets.
