Evaluation: Question 4
Who would be the audience for your media product?
For research i used YouGov Profilers. I typed in similar films to my own such as Kidulthood and Hood Video:
Based on these results, 18-30 years olds both male and female are considered as my wider audience.
My target audience is 12-18 year olds as they are the most likely individuals to relate to the my film best.

Effects
.We use filters to help understand and add effect to scenes.
We used filters such as the black and white filter to help the audience understand it was a flash back to earlier.
We also used the reverse effect at the end of our title sequence, we noticed that a lot of other groups used this to take up time because their title sequences were too sort, where as we used it to help illustrate the storyline. It leaves the title sequence on a cliff hanger, making people watch more as they know quite a lot of information but not enough to be at ease as we reveal a large chunk of the storyline in the opening scenes
We sped up certain clips to shave off a couple seconds because our title sequence was too long. Also it's put on the reverse at the end and the Elipsise to add to the effects off time passing or how fast time has passed.
We used filters to make a segment of our title sequence seem like it's being recorded on a phone, those shots where's videoed to be shakey n lowery resolution so it seemed more likely to be videoed on a phone along with the filter making the shots relevant to what's going on in the film
Sound
We used UK's award winning artists Krept and Konan's song Brother as we thought it best complimented the story we were trying to tell through piece of media.
We also used folley sounds like jogging footsteps on concrete, gasping, staving scenes and many more to add effect to the scenes such as the closing scenes. We also used train announcements to narrate where the characters are going, this was effective as we couldn't do this as effect through mise en scene or dialogue.
Also, we used dialogue from some of the clips to help tell the story that couldn't be shown through actions alone.
Elipsise
We use a Timelaps Elipsise we found on YouTube. We used short segments of this to represent the change of time over between clips so clips do not skip from light to dark and to generally make our piece not coherant.

Target Audience
Our film is aimed at youths between 12-18 years.
This is because a child below 12 would not be able to understand the conflict and the message of the film as the themes are too mature for them. Therefore they will not be able to relate which is bad for us as producers.
The limit is 18 years as this considered the last year of adolescence, any older they would be considered adults and hence could have a different opinion or perception of what we're trying to portray.
Having this target audience allows us to attract our audience to watch the film in which they can relate to. The more a person can relate to a film, the better the film is to the individual. So appealing to youths bewteen the ages of 12-18 would be the best range to ensure our film is a success.

Sound Designs 2
What we have learnt from Sound Design 2?
The songs originally chosen would have been copyright and would not have portrayed the message we intended.
They were too 'upbeat' and 'happy' based on feedback from our peers
What we are going to do?
As it is an urban title sequence based on conflict between youths, we though that a rap song would be best to reflect the sub-genre of the film.
But as someone dies the song cannot be fast and happy but slow to create sympathy for the audience.
Based on this we then researched what type of songs could be potentially used:
After finding these examples we then chose the song called 'Brothers' as it relates to the storyline of our film and title sequence. in addition, it will create the mood and tension we initially wanted.
Rough Copy 1 & 2 Feedback
Rough Copy 1 & 2 Feedback
- Cut down some clips so that it isn't too long. E.g. the smoking scenes.
- Try using some different sounds instead of one sound playing throughout the whole title sequence.
- Reconsider if you want the flashback to be created as it may give away too much of the plot.
- Make the story line more clear that the jacket belongs to the brother and the wrong person has been killed.
