As stated in our planning and research, as a group, we decided to classify our thriller film opening as a 15. This decision was one of the results from the audience research commenced by us a group.
Above is a pie chart showing the results from one the questions on the questionnaire. It shows that majority of the people we asked, who enjoyed thriller films were aged between 15 and 20. This influenced us to choose '15' as a classification. In addition to this we discovered that majority of the people asked, that liked thriller conventions we used, were male. So we decided that majority of our audience would be young males aged between 15 and 20.
Typical Audience Member.
This is Daniel Flay, he is a 17 year old student who enjoys thriller movies, especially psychological thrillers. He is a huge fan of the main protagonist, Levi Hodge, so this automatically attracted his attention to Reprisal. However, Daniel was also intrigued by the wide range of codes and conventions demonstrated in our thriller film opening. In Daniel's spare time he regularly attends the cinema to see film premieres as it is a much better experience than watching it home he explained. His favourite genre of film is thriller and the films include Arlington Road, Brick, and Psycho.
Daniel Stated "I really like thriller films and absolutely love the opening sequence to Reprisal, I cannot wait until I can see the rest, watching the opening immediately give me a huge sense of eireeness. As a huge fan of thriller films I can see how the key conventions and the things I expect to see have been used such as jump cuts. I especially like the use of CCTV footage".
