Evaluation Question 5 - Addrssing/Attracting the audience

My audience being 14-26 is quite a young audience, this age group or bracket like action and excitement and we followed exactly that.our opening sequence is a chase,  one with tension building as the action awaits. from very early on in our sequence it was established something was going to take place or more accurately had taken place. the audio at the begging of the news report was used as a tool to set the felling of drama and commotion and was a great build up for the following action scene which was in fact a flashback that went back in time to show what the news report was about.....


the anticipation of pain created a fear that always sparks emotion and excitement in our target audience, this has been proven to interest our target audience being young people, people from urban and social groups living lifestyles similar to those being represented and people that are firmly engaged in the hype that surrounds this whole street culture.

Our storyline attracts our audience because this said kidnapping ignites excitement and enigma so early in the story and this is only the beginning. our story idea is that this kidnapping sparks an all our war in this local area causing riots and mayhem between these two gangs. the theme of mayhem and destruction is also a theme that has been very successful with our target audience in that past being their age, lifestyles and that our core audience will be male.

i wouldn't say ,y film has a narrative twist as it begins with a shock and surprise which doesn't give the viewer time to be twisted or blindsided because it is the first thing they see, our film is about violence, action, destruction and danger and we conform to these expectations within this opening scene. the moment the kidnapper enters the frame it is made clear to them that something is due to happen very soon, the positions and roles of the characters begin to be built...



Mise En Scene - the road sign is a key signifier that the violence is going to be area related, all adding to and illustrating the idea of street cultures and area related gang crimes, feeding the audience all the information they need to piece the story together but subtly.....





this shows the setting

our switched between the two characters paths or angles simultaneously allows the viewer to understand the intentions or current mind set

our whole sequence is a built up to enigma, it is all a build up to the kidnapping and it ends of the kidnapping to keep the viewer guessing what happens next.

the characters clothes support the theme and attract the urban audience as they are both wearing hooded coats which is in line with the street culture or urban them....

 



the soundtrack is very key in addressing and attracting our audience as it is applied to our audience in every way. it is a grime/rap/urban that gives a street underground kind of feel which is suited to the audience we are targeting, it matches our storyline to do with area affiliation and gangs dedication to postcodes and it is also quit lively and jumpy which keeps up the excitement which we need for a sequence involving action and violence......
