Research and Planning - Audience Research


Research and Planning Audience Research.
Age Range:
14-25.
From our original ideas, we gathered information that in teen drama they're usually based in/on school grounds. Therefore gathering the information that the targeted audience would be children more specifically teenagers around the ages of people participating at school as-well as younger adults, from this I would suggest the target audience range would be from 13 years to 25. These age ranges are likely to view the drama as the scenes are relatable to there day to day life.

Social Groups:
Most if not all social groups:
After researching the forms and conventions of typical Teen Dramas, we found that the majority of social groups often view teen dramas however the most popular would be the working class as the majority of characters in teen dramas are from 'state schools' showing the working class category. However there is still intensive for people of all social classes to view teen dramas as it often could relate to day to day instances.

 Gender
males and females:             
Most teen dramas are aimed at females, an example of this being Gossip Girls, we felt that we would subvert this stereotyped forms and conventions as this would also make ours unique and also with the majority of social groups being targeted then this gives us a wide target audience to aim our drama at.

Narrative Notes

Narrative- No Correct Way. Narrative creates layers of present and future. Narrative is fluid. Interpretive dialogue with the audience. Narrative is built out of events. The voice of narrative can vary. Narrative is a tale, a story of facts Is what I am seeing linear? What meaning is made out of diegesis? What microelements best illustrate the narrative approach? How do my codes add up to a narrative style or approach? How does the narrative serve conflict?

Deciding On Sub-Genre

Image
My project partner and I sat down and talked about main horror sub categories, we came up with three and narrowed it down to one, of which suited us best. Paranormal: The biggest strength about this sub category would be that it is the most popular globally, examples of paranormal film include: The paranormal activity series, The conjuring/Annabelle series. They are all rated highly as horror films, showing success. Also very few actors are needed making the shoots convenient, usually paranormal films are addressed around a backstory and a new family being introduced all to find out they're being haunted. The only disadvantage we found with this subcategory is that the editing phase would be very difficult, however we feel that we can succeed with it. Monster/Alien: Monster/Alien films are more so focused on fantasy or another genre as opposed to horror, therefore falling in success when shown in horror films as they are not very popular especially at the current ...
