5) How did you attract/ address your audience? [James]

Why our audience will enjoy our film

-Our audience will be interested in our film because the enigma that create and keep throughout the opening.

our younger audience will be particularly interested in the dark nature  of our antagonist and his plot line, this will keep our younger audience watching.

Our idea of bringing a retired agent to a "back in action" character will interest the audience and raise question like why is he out of action.

We tried to give our protagonist some characteristics of people in modern life, this includes him trying to turn his life around leaving all the rugged and tough guy man but is brought back in for a final time.

We used a wide variety of shot length and angle for both our characters, using more close ups and ECU's with our antagonist to give some mystery and secrecy in the character which will interest the audience to find out more about him.

We also decided to give our main protagonist a very skeptical and troubled side, this is because he is an former agent. within the scene he is shown in he body language and facial expressions show that he may be in a rush and is either frightened or taking precautions. in the scene up stairs we see him using his hands, we cannot see what he is doing but as well as creating an enigma as to why hes doing that people my think he is packing a bag. by not revealing what is there we can attract the audience so they can use there imagination.

Our opening tries to create  a character which by the end of our thriller should be one that our audience feel towards. The plot of our story is one that has a lot of loss of family and friends, this leads to our audience embracing emotions towards our character so that our audience will empathize with our protagonist.

In our first scene we have shown our antagonist to try and attract our audience. How we achieved this is by giving a sneak peak into the  of the characteristics of this character. in the first scene we use Low key lighting and ECU's to create a dark and mysterious character which will attract people to find out the rest of the story. because we used a darker narrative we attract all kinds of people together with ECU's of computers for a modern approach but with an official envelope for the older fashioned people.

We would continue to use both types of shot length and angle for the characters in the rest of the film until the climax at the final stages of the story.


We hope to have a twist ending like seen here in Unbreakable.

  1. There isn't enough here to make comments on James. You do need to realise that a lot more is expected for each answer. Remember that I said in the lesson that around 2 screens worth is expected for each answer, and that precise, bullet pointed material is expected. You need much more analysis of the aspects of your film that appeal to the audience. See advice on this question from slides on moodle and handout, and see comments I've made on Scott's answer. Lots of work to do here!
