Evaluation Activity 4:

Who would be the audience for your media product?
















(from left) This is Dan Xu, Luke Twyford, Seth Dagger and Chris Westwood. They are all from the Sidcup/Eltham area in Kent, they dress fairly simply, but also to fit their own style, nearly all of them wear just jeans and a t-shirt, but Seth and Luke are quite specific on what to wear, they wear skinny jeans, checkered shirts, hoodies, jumpers and boat shoes/plimsols. They all like shopping in shops like Topman and Primark, but they prefer to buy Band Merchandise and others online as it is easier for them. They all like horror/thriller films, such as Shaun of the Dead, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Saw Films and 28 Days Later, but Seth particularly likes films such as "2012" and "A Day After Tomorrow" they all like watching them at home but also enjoy the rare occasion out to the cinema to watch new releases. None of them are really into watching popular TV soaps, but they like programs such as 'Never mind the Buzzcocks' and 'Mock the Week' they are more into their music then they are TV, Seth and Luke have the same favourite bands, bands such as, Parkway drive, Asking Alexandria, I Killed the Prom Queen and Emmure. One thing they do all like is dubstep, they will listen to all of their music online, like on Youtube or will listen to it on the popular rock radio station XFM, none of them like mainstream music, what is in the charts is not their thing at all.

I think my film would appeal to these as they are stereotypical hardcore kids who enjoy watching gory films, filled with suspense, drama and of course lots of blood, which is what my film has to offer. If this film was shown in their local cinema, I think it would appeal to them because of the interests they all share, and also, it relates to some of the films they like, like Shaun of the Dead and 28 Days Later.
