Audience Research

Here are some statistics before we begin.

Horrors and thrillers are movies that offer thrills, excitement and curiosity, which are usually the factors that attract younger people, from age 15-25 (teens to young-adult), however, for some, the age barrier could be upper 18, as for extreme violence or sexual aspects. Young adults usually seek for intense experiences that challenge them, marking huge shift from children turning into adults. It's been asserted that horror films encourage group interaction because teens talk and laugh about their responses and experiences afterward. 

With that, my target audience is teens my age and the young adults. So considering the facts above, my opening scene would need to be fast-paced, including scenes that could higher the adrenaline of viewers.

Primary audience: Mr Vz and the Cambridge examiners.

Secondary audience: audience watching through YouTube.
