After doing some research on the UK Film Council website, I have found some data which could help our group decide what Genre of film to pick for our Opening 2 Minutes. Some of the diagrams below show data about Audience Response:
After analysing data on film audiences from the UK Film council, it is clear that there is a potentially huge market for me to target. 26% of people are saying Thriller/Suspense is their favourite genre.
(Page 116 - Table Above)
As shown in the table above, the people who like Thriller/Suspense of a larger proportion are females over the age of 35. Because our group is thinking on doing a Thriller/Suspense genre, our Target Audience would be aimed mainly at females over the age of 35, however the genre is quite popular throughout all the ages so we would also try to link our film with the other ages. Also, the people in the C2 Social Class like Thriller/Suspense the most, C2 includes skilled manual workers like plumbers and builders.
All of this data is very important to our group because it is giving us an idea of what genres are popular and with what Gender/Age group.
A link to the website in which I found all of this information is below:
There's quite a lot of unfinished posts here - address that.
ReplyDeleteAnalyse a few films from your genre, and then write up the conventions of the genre.
All the BBFC stuff needs to go on, same with Target Audience info (who, why, how you'll reach them, interview)
Blurb and Synopsis
These need to go up before you start scripting and storyboarding which I want to start this coming week
