Extra research on my genre and audience

A total of 321 movies were given the classification, including The Hunger Games and Gravity, up from 234 in 2012.The rating means children aged 12 and over can go and see a film unaccompanied, but those under the age of 12 must view the film with an adult.For the first time, there were more 12A releases than 15-rated films.

Our audience is targeted at the ages of 12 and above. This is so our genre is completely directed to all ages and gets the maximum amount of people watching it as possible.

From our research we have found that the most common and liked genre to this date is action adventure. Luckily for us, we are doing action as our chosen genre.

We have also made the action film as a mainstream film, this would be so it could be distributed to a wider range of cinemas and be shown to more people as all audiences have personal preferences regarding what cinema they want to watch films in. This does not eliminate any of our audience because we are targeting it to all ages from 12 and above, so therefore if we are aiming it at the biggest amount of people possible, it could go successfully.

This will help us when creating our film because it will help us no our limits, therefore what we can and can't implement because of the age certification and because of the audience watching. We can also use other mainstream film's techniques and use it in ours because if their film was successful with the same age rating and both mainstream, we can use ideas from that and do similar filming in our opening.

The research we did, was questionnaires and surveys to find out exactly what would be perfect for our film. We found some secondary research online, to discover what the most popular genres were to the general public, this helped us then properly choose our chosen genre and based on the ages of the people who answered, helped us choose our audience.
