How did you attract/address your audience?



This Thriller will catch the eye of my target audience as films with this theme are not usually seen in the public eye, society tends to try and hide problems of drug use rather than address them which is why our Thriller will stand out from the rest (it is addressing a problem most are too scared to address).

Admittedly the main reason most of our audience wanted to watch our Thriller was because the Thriller was made by us (people their own age) so this caught the interests of many young people like us which consume mass amounts of media.

Another reason many viewers were attracted to our Thriller was because many deemed the subject of our Thriller (Side effects of Drugs) as  unusual or inappropriate, many would not of proceeded with this idea which adds individualism to the Thriller.

After the Thriller was produced i addressed my audience by posting the video on Facebook (a social network site) in order to get some decent feedback directly from my target audience;


From posting this video on Facebook i got some very useful feedback, most of which was positive, here are the comments from the Video;

Alexia Martins good job, and nice effects ;)


Kel Pinchin Good camera angles, nice effects. Multiple cuts in places really was effective. Nice confusing opening to a psychological thriller, will keep people watching to see what happens.

Emily 'Chubs' Dougall i like the variety of camera shots and effects, i also like the music as it works really well with the piece. i also think its a good plot and a good story to open a thriller with. To improve maybe do more with your titles? other than that its reaaaaaaaaaaaal good :)


Amy King Good variety of camera angles, and effects used... I like the birds-eye view shot, I think that works really well. Good start to a thriller, keeps people guessing and wanting to watch more to find out what happens

Callum James Cole It's good dude. Works really well.

Marc Bull Fryer That's Gd man


All of the comments above clearly show that our target audience recognises the effectiveness of the conventions that we used.

Filming in two time scales also attracted the interest of veiwers as it adds more to the storyline and adds hints of confusion. Another attarction was concept of a psychadelic thriller which is quite un-heard of  to many. Also the wide range of effects used in the product has a very enticing, attractive effect on the veiwer.
