OUR FINAL OPENING SEQUENCE - Captive

Wednesday 23 March 2011

Genre and Audiences

Our film fits into the teen thriller genre, with themes relating to crime and action, as it's plot is tense and full of enigma, whilst featuring a promdominant teen cast.

We have a primary audience of teens/young adults (16-24), both male and female. We attract them to our film as our protagonists are teen aged and are presented in a positive light - they are strong and independant. As the thriller genre typically attracts more of a male audience, we felt that we needed to have strong female characters. So our hero's sidekick Charlotte, a girl, is strong-minded, brave, helpful and reliable.

Our secondary audience consists of adults who are fans of the thriller genre, and who are familiar with similar films such as Taken or The Dark Knight.
