Considerations ( in terms of audience ) for creating our film opening

Billy Parker
 
For our film opening, we have chosen an age 15 rating. And so, we will need to consider the age of our audience as being quite mature and smart, so we will need to create a storyline which gives away some very minor details if any, as so we will not give away the complete narrative of the film. We will also be able to use more adult things such as blood and maybe even some swearwords to try and present our age rating to the audience immediately. Another consideration is who to cast. We will need to cast an older person due to the older audience, as well as we would want our audience to know that the character of our film will be experienced and know that the character will be able to trace the details of a long and convoluted murder. Our audience will also want a fresh idea, and so I believe that we will need to do something different than just a generic murder in the opening, to help the audience understand that our film wouldn't be generic and just any other opening.


I believe that with the age of audience that we would need to show how our film is real, so we will be using realistic props and costumes wherever is possible to try and engage our audience as opposed to say a PG rating where we would have to give extremely generic props to the detective character such as a magnifying glass, etc. Due to the older audience, we also will have to ensure that our sets are particularly perfect, because they probably will take more notice to what is happening in the surroundings and the wider picture. The fact that our audience is mature means that we can make a darker and more disturbing 'villain' in our film, which would create a darker tone for the film as well as building a bigger bond between the main character and the audience.




Overall we will be taking the ideas from Luther  about how to structure the frame as well as how to include a more villainous antagonist to entice our older audience.
