Evaluation Question 5.

Evaluation Question 4.

The audience of our thriller is shown to be mainly teenage males. This is shown by the use of our survey done on Surveymonkey.com. The survey shows that 25 of the 38 people who completed the survey were males. Therefore our percentages show that roughly 65% of the viewers were male as shown below;
Our survey also showed that  97% of the viewers were between the age of 16-24, one person said that they were between the ages of 65-74 however we can assume that this result was not true. From these results we can assume that the reason that these people specifically would watch our thriller is due to the fact that it is targeted towards the younger generation, as they tend to prefer fast paced films. Our thriller is also extremely violent which attracts young teenage males. We also can gather from our Vox Populi that teenagers would watch our thriller as many of them stated that thrillers were one of their preferred types of film. 




As our audience is of a younger age it is safe to assume that they will not be going out to view out film, and will most likely prefer to go to the internet to watch the film, possibly on netflix, or cucirca.
