How did you attract/address your audience?

Throughout the film they are different parts that may attract an audience for example the location because we have set the film in an ordinary house they will feel they can relate to it as it will be something they see themselves everyday and this again helps to put them into the action and this will attract them in to watching it. I then think the garage will attract the audience because it is quite eerie and I believe that a male audience will enjoy the violence that takes place in the garage and the weapon that is used; the hammer.

I think by using a typically British location and showing the streets around it we have been able to address the British audience, bought in through vertigo, directly.

The protagonist we have used is also something that would attract an audience, for example as I am playing the main role a young female this will attract the females in to watching it because they can link with the protagonist and imagine what they would do if they were in that position. Also the male audience may enjoy watching a female who is central to the horror that is happening. But something else that would attract a male audience is the use of male antagonists and the violence and this is an element some of the males will enjoy.

We have also used very naturalistic characters and this helps attract an audience as it appears more realistic to them and the find themselves drawn in by the action. They can also imagine that is could happen as the story isn’t too fat fetched and this would interest an audience.
