Who would be the audience for your media product?

Audience
  These three images displayed are representing te sort of audience we are targeting 'Distraught Bride' at.
BBFC classification for our thriller, reason for choosing and what is included in it
After carefully studying the BBFC website for the classifications; we decided to go for the rating 15. A film rated at 15 normally includes; some type of dangerous behaviour (so for example in our thriller opening we included a knife showing violence). Also, the psycological side of our thriller opening may influence the children to behave in an unusual way. So, being in this situation, we decided it was best to aim it at 15 or above. After watching 'Donnie Darko', I noticed that the film was trying to portray a very disturbed teenager who is able to see into the future, thanks to a book on time travelling. http://www.zimbio.com/watch/NHUuupVa2oY/Donnie+Darko+Scene+Book+Time+Travel/Donnie+Darko
Donnie speaks of the book and grandma death in this scene.


Donnie Darko and how it relates to our thriller opening
I feel that this film relates to some people in the audience, because teenagers are often known to get a psychological problem and believe they are able to see into the future or tend to have a friend that 'tells' them what to do however no one else can see them. I beleive that the audience would enjoy our film because of its psychological twist in the plot. The main idea is to keep them on te edge of their seats and wanting to know more! Also, giving it a romantic sub-genre it can also be aimed at people who are after a romantic/thriller film that has an odd twist.
