The Target Audience for my idea's for short films.
The target audience that I am aiming for in my short film is the same target audience for most short films that I have already spoken about in my prezi's. This is teenagers ages 13+ and young adults up until around 22. I think that these are the kinds of people that I should be aiming my films at because these are the kinds of people most likely to actually watch them.
This is because when you are around this age, you have a lot more spare time on your hands compared to someone who works full time or has a family. Therefore you would have more time to watch films like this. If you are a busy person then you are not going to bother to sit down and watch a random short film that you saw on YouTube. However if you are aged between 13-22 and you see something on YouTube then usually you will have nothing else you need to be doing and will therefore click on it and watch the short film.
Another reason I think this age group is a good one to aim for when making a short film is that they are the age group that uses social media the most. They spend a lot of time trawling though their news feed or the latest video's looking for something to entertain them. So this is a perfect opportunity to give them something to watch that they will be entertained by.
I feel like I have made my idea's appealing to this audience by making them entertaining. I feel like people of this age don't want to be educated, they want to be entertained. There is romance, drama and some serious issues in each of my short film idea's so it's appealing to them but it also teaches them something without them realising.
