Evaluation: Question Four; Who would be the audience for your product?

When planning our product, we were very uncertain about what sort of audience our piece would target or attract. However, during the production of our product and after it was completed, our group decided that our media product would have a target audience of people aged 15 and above. According to the BBFC, for a film to be within the boundaries of a fifteen certificate, it can have drug taking, horror, imitable behaviour, strong language, nudity, sex and violence. Our media product stays within the guidelines of a fifteen certificated film (using the BBFC's guidelines) as it only uses strong language mildly, there is no use of drugs, nudity or sexual references or imitable behaviour. The violence in the extract is quite strong and make up is used to represent bruises but it is not a major part throughout our film.
When researching the films within our genre, we found that we would use certain aspects of these films to enhance our own piece and most fantasy films are rated PG.However, Pans Labyrinth (which our film has relative likeness to) was certificated 15 for strong language and violence. We researched into our genre and found that the fan base for fantasy films was quite large; the need for escapism being the root of that.
