Media studies As level, evaluation task 5

1. By Immy Evans

2. • We targeted our primary audience, males aged 18-
25, firstly through our chosen actress.
• As our actress, Flora, was attractive, blonde which
gives her an overall, very sexy vibe.
• When asked, men in this age group said that they
would be more likely to watch a film starring a
character with these characteristics.
GENDER
• She is tall, slender and has a lot of sex appeal which is perfect for attracting our

way of life has lead to more explicit and dangerous
activities such as sexting and online/virtual stalking,
which can cause people real harm outside of the virtual
universe, in which these things reside, and into the real
world.

target audience as some older generations may not truly understand or relate to as they did not have this
influencing their society, unlike todays generation who see this person being watched in the same way
that they watch each other through the use of social media which, to them makes it feel more realistic,
as though it could and may be happening to them or a person that they know.

4. As our audience is primarily males and females aged 18-25, this is much more
important and influential as this film is a psychological thriller encouraging the
audience to think and investigate the situations for themselves.
AGE GROUP

5. The way that our video has been cut together is also very influential over the age
group towards which our film is targeted. As the cuts are quite fast, changing
angles very often, making it much more fast pace and
