Planning- Target Audience

    Now that most of my research is finished, it's time to start planning. I'm excited for this part because I've been brainstorming different outlines for my film. I chose to see a Psychological Slasher film opening for my brief. I did so because I enjoy watching films that mess with the human mind. The concept of technical elements like various camera shots and angles affecting how a person can view things interests me. I chose to work alone because I need things to be done in the EXACT way that I want them. This characteristic of mine would most likely make it very hard to work well with others.

Target Audience

For my target audience, I chose for them to be in the usual demographic of Gen Z. I want to specifically target American women as well. To do this, I will use a teenage girl as the main character. As for who exactly I want to film with, I still haven't figured it out yet. I'm thinking the setting could be filmed in my home because if all else fails, my family will always be willing to become my actors. 

Interest that I want my audience to have are an interest in films that have subtle foreshadowing. By this, I mean signs of something bad approaching, being shown early on in the film, but not enough information to know exactly when that will take place. My audience should like to be kept on the edge of their seats, waiting for the killer to make their move.

My application

My storyline will be used to show this effectively because in my first few second of my film, I will immediately show a murder weapon without any context, hinting at this being a foreshadow or a scene that you will only understand if you continue to watch the film.

After long anticipation, I've finally finished my CCRs. They took lots of work, but I'm very pleased with the way they all came out!...
