Our main target audience for our thriller film is teens and young adults from the age 15 up. This is because the certification for most thrillers is either 15 or 18 due to the violent or disturbing nature of the film, so ours would be rated as a 15 or 18. Our demographic would be both genders, as the predominantly female cast (all the cast in the opening are female) would appeal to a female audience, and the thriller genre is typically preferred by males, so the films genre would attract a male audience. In our Audience research the results were 9 females and 7 males, making our demographic fairly even. As an independent film, we would have a niche audience, rather than a mass audience. This is because an independent film like ours would be distributed less than a one distributed by the Big Six, and as the target audience is quite specific( opposed to a family film which would attract all ages and both genders) it is more likely that a select type of audience would wish to see this film. Also, as it would have a 15 or 18 certification the audience that are underage wouldnt be able the view the film until they meet age requirement, meaning an even more select audience would watch our film.
