Vindictive - Audience Research



For the action target audience it would mostly be men from the age 16 - 40 because males who are teenagers love a good adrenaline burst so that they can feel hyped about the movie. This is used because when you are grow up you can get the adrenaline and it makes the audience feel like they can do anything. Action movies attract males as it is stereotypical for men to be attracted to violence films.  There would be different types of races that watch action moves only because it is one of the most watched and biggest out of all of the genres.

Jason Statham is a good example for action movies this is because he is a the stereotypical man who is strong and seems like he doesn't want to be messed with. This would make male audiences want to watch because he knows how to fight and most males like violence because it gets their blood pumping and gives them  adrenaline.

Things that would attract the action audience would be helicopters explosions, hand to hand combat, gunfights, adrenaline bursts and a main character who portrays a action hero very good.

In our movie we are trying to include hand to hand combat to make the film  seem like it has more action in it and gives the audience more adrenaline  for when they are watching. Also we will make it seem like we are in the mafia so that we can make the audience think that we are going to make it so that there is a good chance that the audience will think that there is going to be a lot of fight scenes and action.

Research and Planning Targets

You have done some good research but you need to push yourself to evidence more planning of your film. There are a lot of things you have yet to evidence - storyboarding, scripting and location research is lacking and I am expecting video diary posts to show me how the filming is going! Push yourself and delegate responsibilities within the group to meet your time deadline!

Vindictive - Prop Research



Prop Ideas:

There are lots of props which are going to be used in our movie. For our main character we are going to make him dress up like a action hero. So he/she would wear a black coat or suit and shades ( sun glasses)

Shades (Sun Glasses) - The shades would be used to make him look like they mysterious and like they are trying to hide themselves so they don't know who their identity is.Suit: The main characters would be in a suit to make them look like real a hit-man, this also makes the audience think that they are being payed or working for someone. This also makes them look like they are trying to look like they are being serious.  The main antagonist is going to wear a suit to make him look like he takes business very serious and is not to be messed with.

The henchman is going to wear a waistcoat which is smart and black trousers so he looks like he is going into a fight.The main protagonist is going to wear a long black coat and trousers- we chose the main protagonist to wear a long black coat we want to make him look like he is a serious character. For example when the hero is at the beginning he is either wearing a coat or an army uniform.The secondary protagonist is going to wear a jacket, shirt and trousers and sick trainers.
we want to make him look like a sidekick of the hero, so he is not as skilled as the hero, so he still learning from the hero. So he can't fight as good as the hero.

The Head antagonist is going to be dressed in a suit like he is part of the mafia, he is also going to be sat behind a desk. This makes him look he is the head of the business.
