Production Log FOUR

This week I have learnt a lot about my target market. By recording teenagers in a vox pop format, I have been able to brush up on my skills in editing, questionnaires and obtaining information. In terms of my target market, I have found out that they tend to be fans of the films that showcase relevant issues with youthful actors. As a way of enticing my particular market that I am aiming my film at into watching the production, I would need to get similar conventions as seen in films such as "Kidulthood (2006)", "This Is England (2006)" and "Four Lions (2010)" as these were the most popular films that my respondents had allowed me to acknowledge. 

In terms of the institutions involved in BSR films, I would say that they tend to focus their films in locations that give off rough and troubled. This is evident in companies like "Film Four" and "ContentFilm" whom created films such as "Looking For Eric (2009)" and "Fish Tank (2009)". These are particularly unvarnished films that represent the true representation of Britain.

This will all inform my production as it has enabled me to understand that my target market has a particular interest in issues such as depression and bullying. They also seem to like ghetto looking areas with a youthful population. In order to meet the wants of my target audience, I will look for locations that contain these aspects as well as incorporating actors and storylines that live up to the apparent demand.
