Who would be the audience for your media product?

Once we found out that we had to make a thriller product we got people to fill out a questionnaire that we had created to find out what the audience would want within a opening two minutes of a thriller we asked questions about themselves such as genre and age (to get a specific target audience) along side with questions about location, characters and sub genres of thrillers. The majority of people we asked these questions were 16-17 year old teenagers, male and female. This was because us, the producers of the opening were around this age, we do not feel this represented the whole of our audience. The favourite chosen genre on the questionnaire was thriller and comedy. Within a thriller we found that characters they expected were conventional characters (a hero and a villain) .we also found that most people expected an abandoned/ derelict house to be the setting of a thriller opening, we saw this in our questionnaire and chose our setting in an abandoned air base, to create a dark look for our opening. we stuck to what we found out in our questionaire because we felt this was the safest way to go, this helped us plan and create the piece that an audience would like.
