Target audience

The target audience for films and opening sequences vary within the genre. The two relate in a significant way, this is because different genres relate to different audeinces.

An example of this can be a specific audience that will like action movies, or a specific audience will enjoy watching comedy films. Or for other genres, there will always be a specific audience.

Our opening sequence will also have a specific target audience, this is in order to closely look at the different types of people and which genre generally gets the most support and views. When taking the target audience to account then you also have to look at the age group and type of person. With our opening sequence we will be using the genre: action. The age group for our opening sequence will be targeted at both men and women, all different ages but mainly middle aged and teenagers, this is because statistics show that mostly these two age groups enjoy watching action films.

Costume Character - 3

The third and last character will be the target, the target does not know that he is being hunted by the hired killer so therefore he will not be disguising trying to hide. The character has also left prison so financially won't be very high resulting in not having luxury clothes. Significantly resulting in the character also wearing casual clothes, maybe a bit scruffy to indicate past.

                   

Costumes Character - 2

The second charcter will have a costume of casual, this is because the character is the hired killer so therefore he will not be wearing a smart type of clothing, he will have a casual atire to fit in with the rest of the people. This keeps the hired killer undercover as well as implying the financial statement of not being able to afford smart clothing.

These are examples of the type of clothing the character will be wearing:



The hired killer will also be using props, such as: car keys, weapons, phones etc.

Costumes - Character - 1

The first character will be the a son of a wealthy man, the dad has a lot of money so this implies the son will have more problems and a lot more trouble. The money is significant as the son will have a smart dress code, therefore the costume of the character will be smart. Preferably a suit or a smart type of clothing.

These are a few examples of smart types of clothing that the first chaarcter will be wearing:

                

Illuminator
