5. How did you attract/ address your audience?

The first thing that me and my group choose to do was to upload our opening sequence onto YouTube. As our film is trying to specifically target teenagers/young adults we felt that by uploading our video onto YouTube this would be a beneficial way of approaching our targeted audience and appealing to them. Pratically every household has the internet, and YouTube has been associated with thousands of people or things being known or even becoming famous.

We also gained some brilliant feedback and opinions from other YouTube users.

We then progressed a further step by posting the video of our film onto Facebook. When researching into Facebook I discovered that it has more than 600 million users and is the most popular social networking site to ever be created. This could attract my audience even further as by posting the video onto facebook, if people enjoyed it all they would have to do is post it onto their wall etc. You are also able to comment on the video posts, and therefore me and my group would have easy access when receiving our feedback- whether it be good or bad.

We recieved a fantastic 39 comments, all of which were extremely postive or were positive critism. It really helped me and my group improve on our opening sequence as not only were we able to gain feedback and tips from our media teachers, but from what our target audience thought we could improve on. Here are some of our feedback that I have specifically used for my blog as me and my group found them the most useful, and therefore it enabled us to address our audience more successfully.



We also filmed a classmate giving us some feedback on our thriller opening sequence whilst he was watching it.
