This document discusses the target audience for a thriller/suspense film called "Insight". The primary target audience is females over 35 from social class C2, as data shows they are most likely to watch thriller films. The secondary audience is males over 35. Though over 35s are not heavy film watchers, they still watch at a medium rate. The film will be rated 15 due to mild violence, blood, and sexual scenes. All characters will be female to appeal more to the male audience.

parents and in a social class of C2. This makes it easier for us to know who our secondary and
primary audience will be, for our secondary audience it will be males over 35 and females over 35
for our primary audience. Insight will be targeted at over 35s both genders, however it will also be
targeted at a younger audience; 15 and above because our BBFC rating is 15.

We have decided to rate our film 15 because we thought insight will be well suited to rating 15 for
our target audience. Insight will not be suitable for anyone younger than 15 because it contains mild
features of blood, sexual scenes and imitable behaviour which may be considered violent in the film.
As our secondary target audience is males over 35, all the characters are females to appeal to the
audience more. The stereotype of thriller movies is the protagonist is set against a problem; an
escape, a mission, or a mystery, it will emphasize the danger that the protagonist faces.
Our primary target audience is females over 35 which the graph clearly shows they watch more
thriller films than men which could be a good thing with a social class of C2.
