We consider it important to analyse our target audience's answers to our survey to acknowledge the aspects they are interested in viewing and if its something plausible for us as a group to produce, in terms of location, character style/age/gender, sub-genre, sound etc.
Below are the results:
SURVEY ANALYSIS
Our target audience chose ‘acoustic’ non-diegtic music for and we think this is perfect and will definitely fit with the over all atmosphere and emotions we will try to create in our film opening.
Any of the above would have been acceptable to add to our plot and this also shows how the theme of homosexuality amongst others are considered to be typically included in rated 15 films.
This is exactly the response we were hoping for as we intend to show our characters personality and emotions through acting/physical interaction rather than dialogue. We think collectively it seems more effective. This also applies to the response on Question 6.
Again, as a group we had already decided to create characters that, portray a female lesbian couple and this seems to be, same as gay couples, something our audience is very responsive to.
Our audience seemed to gravitate towards making the homosexual couple slightly older, but as our target audience is still 15-21, then we still think any of the above age groups would be suitable and still able to be clearly relate and provoke emotions within our target audience.
Although our audience response to this particular question showed the majority wanted the film location to be a work/school environment, taking into consideration our plot and themes and just how strongly we feel about showing intamacy between characters; we dont think the chosen location would be suitable. Instead we have chosen the close second choice, home/flat.
Any of the above would have been suitable, and most probably we will include all those features mentioned above in order to enusre our film opening maintains common codes and conventions of other romance films.
