Task 4
- 1. Task 4. Who would be the audience for your media product? The audience of our film would be between the ages of 24-36 tilted towards the male audience and the middle class. It would appeal to males as they like action and thriller films, but slighter older males would like are film as it a slower paced physiological thriller. This target audience is similar to a film similar to ours, Bourne identity – a political, conspiracy thriller. I think Empire magazine would be most likely to carry reviews and adverts for our film. Empire reviews a range of popular and new films with complex and in-depth reviews. The style is professional and impersonal. Their reviews are in depth made for people interested in film and not just for people who are flicking through a paper this would match our film as it is quite a complex story, which wouldn’t be given justice in just a few words. I think this matches are film as it is quite a complex physiological/conspiracy thriller. The new UK political conspiracy thriller, Letters of the Illuminati was released on Friday and has broken box office records. It follows in the tradition of other political thriller such as the Day of the Jackal, In the Line of Fire and Vantage Point with a presidential assassination at the heart of the plot. However, the would-be assassin is torn between wanted to leave the life of being a hitman behind him and finishing the job. With commitments to his family and girlfriend at home but the temptation of money and the possibility destroying the modern corrupt political system he has grown to hate.
