TARGET AUDIENCE (final)

We have decided that our target audience would be males from 15-16, to around 25. The reason for this is that, as a relatively action filled film, generally more males prefer these. The reason for the lower age being 15-16, is that the storyline, though not too complexed, may be difficult to understand for lower ages, and also there will be violence as this is a convention for Gangster films. The reason for the higher age being around 25 is that, through our research, we have noticed that audiences of a higher age tend to look for a film with more substance and a deeper meaning, whereas our film is more action based and follows a storyline where the audience would rarely have to look for a deeper meaning. Due to these factors, the film certificate would most likely be a 15, however, depending on any changes we decide to make, it could be shifted up to an 18.

PROPER TEXTUAL ANALYSIS

THIS IS MY TEXTUAL ANALYSIS OF THE EMPIRE MAGAZINE FRONT COVER THAT WE AS A GROUP WANT TO AIM TO CREATE.
(BLOGGER HAD ISSUES THAT WASENT OUR PROBLEM - THIS IS WHY THIS IMAGE IS POSTED MORE BELLOW IN THE BLOG, BUT AT LEAST WITH THIS ONE YOU CAN SEE WHERE WE GOT OUR IDEAS FROM)

DEVELOPMENT

FINAL MAGAZINE COVER

This is our final magazine idea for our gangster film trailer. we have called the magazine 'Universal' - called it this was a group effort. we got the ideas from the film magazine cover of Empire, and have done simular design layout ideas. we have used a superimpossed image of the main character (female) in our film to cover some of our 'Universal' title. Using the city skyline lower down the magazine cover - draws the readers into the title more than the image.

we have an image from http://www.google.com/ to use as our magazine barcode for the cover. using a real but random barcode makes the magazine cover more realistic. bellow is the one we have chosen.
