Target Audience –

We have decided to target our thriller movie to 15 year olds because our survey showed that this is what most people said they can see when we asked them on the survey. We also know that for the most part that we should base our movie on a crime thriller because this was the most popular subgenre of thriller. We should be basing our movie in the style of Shutter Island, Saw and Taken because these are popular media movies.

Creative Ideas -

- Worms eye view to create clostrophobia - Slow music and panning to show sadness with

the titles.- Sergio in darklighting to show he is a force to

be reckoned with.- Fading out to show title.
