 This whole process has been a great experience and i have learnt alot, such as embedding presentations, converting videos, using a camera, editing etc. I think the key to our successful product was that my group got on really well i can not recall any of us arguing once. This has boosted my team work skills and built my confidence with workign with new software's as i found they got easier the more i used them. I got in to the routine of blogging regularly and checking it, it was like my new twitter it will be sad not using it anymore. However this has made me more organised and aware of different types of media platforms. Looking at our film opening i am very proud that i could achieve this with my group. Overall this has definitely been a beneficial learning curve.

Evaluation question 5:

Q5: How did you attract/address your audience? 
 








This is our Facebook page updating fans on any sort of news related to the actors/film. Also the fans can leave comments and interact which makes them feel part of the experience.

This is a poster I put together with snaps from the opening and the big bold red title so people will remember it. I also left a question at the bottom ' who will make it?' to get the audience thinking.

Evaluation question 4:

Who would be the audience for your media product?

In general teen movies attract teens and young adults however it could also attract adults as they could relate as they've been there and done it or young teens aspiring to be like the characters and seeing them as a role model. Different teens will be intrigued by different genres such as love, friendship, sports, fun etc. Many teens watch teen films because they can relate to the issues that are being shown and they have a real understanding of teen life as they are experiencing it now.

 Here is a Facebook page of 'Amy  Lynch' who is a 17 year old from Essex who is great lover of horror films as you can see. This is the kind of teenager that would be interested in watch our film 'Jack'.


A more specific audience to our sub genre would be 15+ who are interested in horror films and teen adventures. Films like 'The cabins in the woods' and 'The Blair witch project' really inspired us because they were both about teenagers, they both involved an adventure and they were both horror. Which is similar to our film because a group 4 different individuals get together to go camping in the woods. However like these two films its not as straight forward as that, they will face obstacles through out their stay in the woods.

Even though many teen films are relatable only a certain social group can relate due to the content of the film for example if the film was about teens playing basketball only people that liked basketball would watch it. However with 'Jack' our USP is that we have 4 main characters that many social groups could relate to at least one (the Princess, Jock, Nerd and the weirdo). It shows the difference between the four of them and how different they all are and how they deal with the terror that's been thrown at them. Although our specific audience would be teens that enjoy watching horror films.
