Evaluation question four: Who would be the audience for your media project?
Who would be the audience for your media project?
Before doing any research into my target audience, I originally thought that my target audience would be males between the ages of 18-40. However after doing research in to the this I now believe the correct target audience my film is aimed at is actually both male and females around the age of 20. The reason for me changing my mind on this is because of the answers I received on a survey I recently done. In this survey I asked six simple questions, each with multiple choice answers.
The first question I asked was simple 'Are you male of female?', I asked this question so I could find out if my film was gender specific when asking questions later on in the survey. The results from this question were 15 male and 15 female, this is because I asked an equal number of each gender in order to try and get the most accurate results possible from my survey.
The second question I then asked was 'Which category below includes your age?', the options for this included '17 or younger', '18-20', '21-29', '30-39', '40-49', '50-59' and '60 or older'. From the 30 people I asked there were 4 people for each of the categories except '18-20' which had 6 people in it. From this question I would be able to work out what age group my film is best suited for, I would be able to work this out by asking questions later on in the survey and then relate back to their age once completed.
The third question in my survey was 'Do you like my AS media film opening?' and the options for this were simply just 'Yes' or 'No'. The results from this were that 18 people said 'Yes' whereas 12 said 'No'. By relating this back to the age group question asked earlier I can see that 13 of the 18 people that said they enjoyed the film were in the first 3 age categories, which ranged them from 17-29. While the 12 people who didn't like the film were in the other end of the categories, mostly in the ages 50+. I also related this back to the gender question which I asked first, and found out that of the 18 people who said they enjoyed the film, 10 were male, and 8 were female. From this information I can see that the main people who enjoyed my film were between the ages of 17-29 and their gender wasn't overly significant.
The fourth question I asked was 'In your opinion, who is the film best suited for?', the options I gave were 'Children (5-12)', '

Locations
For the opening of my film I will need to use various locations for different scenes. These include many different houses and also places to drive.
The first place I will be filming in is my driveway at home, this will give the effect that James Dean (main character) is driving upto a house in order to try and sell his products. I'm hoping it will look good due to there being lots of trees around and also it is fairly long.
The second location which I have chosen to film at is inside my house This will be used for the scene when James is on the phone to his boss and saying that he wants to quit. I'm hoping it will look fairly formal and give off the impression James is a smart person.
These are the main two locations which I will be using throughout the opening, along various other houses which James will be knocking on but these will only be for very very short clips.

Preliminary task
For our preliminary task we were told to make a short film showing the opening and closing of a door, a character sitting across the table from another character and then these two characters having a conversation together. In our group we decided it would be best to do a police interview, here you see joe open and close the door walking into the room, sit across the table from the interviewee and then interogates him.
