Target audience

It is important that we know who our audience is, whether they’re young teenagers or adults. Every movie has an age group and I feel that although this is not really important as we are only doing the beginning of a thriller movie. It is best that we have an intended audience in our mind therefore allowing our production to run smoothly and not be disturbed. As Jayne one of the members in group 6 wanted to start the thriller movie with blood and death (I agree now), therefore the film "LUCID" would be aimed at teenagers roughly (about 14 to 15) due to the blood and death and of course destructive weoponary.

The audience should straight away know what age the film should be appropriate for, if we look at the animated movie Shrek we would know that it is for little kids as it not only animated but fictional as it has ogres and fairies that make it seem magical to kids. Whereas if you look at the movie saw it has allot of violence, death and blood therefore we would clearly see this movie as being rated around 18 and above. But let’s not get to ahead of ourselves as we haven’t even started shooting the title sequence
