5) How did you attract/address your audience?

Audience Feedback
  • Accent portrayed the character well
  • Music was repetitive- we found it difficult to create a piece of music appropriate as we did not have a specific genre for our media product.We felt that none of the sounds on Soundtrack Pro suited the theme so went with a simple soundtrack
  • Font was more suited for a thriller- however in the whole film there will be elements of thriller and crime, this was not made clear in the opening sequence
  • Effects- they liked the effects we used for the transitions of the shots and the video filters
  • Not as good as expected from our preliminary task and previous work


As our film is aimed at the age certificate of 15, it would attempt to attract the audience by immedietly grabbing there attention with the use of brief none violent action shots of boxing; to show them that instantly the film will be about something related to boxing. Having a voiceover throught the sequence, means that the audience would know straight away know what is going on in a very brief opening. In the first few seconds they will most probably ask questions about what is going on, but all is answered so it is clear, if the audience is unsure then they should watch it more carefully, so potentially pulling them in more. As there is a minimum of bad language in the opening sequence, it shows the audience that is not aimed at a specifc over 18 rated audience. As there is a slight bit of violence it tells the audience that this film is not aimed at any lower aged audience members. With our upbeat music, its grabs the attention of the audience, as they can watch it thinking something might happen now. We used interesting and eye catching fonts so the audience were always aware that it is a film.
