We chose the certificate of our film to be a 15 rating. We used this rating because it suits the genre and the assignment was able to appeal to our target audience. The assignment does have some explicit language but not excessive amounts, there is a knife utilized and some blood (which is fake), overall the rating is perfect for our type of film genre and has helped us plan in accordance to our target audience.
One of our priorities was to target the audience of our opening two minutes and purposely try to target 15,16 and 17 year olds as well the slighty older audience. We were initially going to aim the film at 18 year olds to an audience in their late 20s. However, with careful consideration we felt that the film would also appeal to a younger audience because of the genre and other elements. The underground/hip hop style music and sound utilized that would attract a large proportion from this higher youth, young adults as this type of convention appeals to an audience like that. Therefore ensuring that the film would appeal to a wider audience than initially planned to increase recognition.
All of these picture represent 15-17 year olds, young adults, such as students and people in their mid 20s to 30s, as we wanted the opening to appeal to a wider audience. They would be expected to be interested in these types of films, such as Taken, The Dark Knight, Iron Man, Never Back Down, Unrivalled, as all these belong to the action movie genre. These films are quite similar to the media assignment film genre and this will only contribute in taking a keen interest in our film.
