Evaluation Question 5

Evaluation Question 5

How did you attract/address your audience?

Throughout our opening scene we aim attract audeinces to watch the full film. This is why we chose the opening shot to be of a dead body as this should hopefully get them interested immediately as they will want to find out more about the body. They should then further be interested with the quick flashforwards of the hands being washed this then suggests the person laying on the floor has been murdered. 'Morven Callar' is similar to ours starting off with a dead body on the floor. There is then a quick cut to action of the two boys running away from the crime scene. At this point the audience should be able to tell that these two boys have murdered the boy in the woods this is why they are running. A this scene seems to be the main plot twist the audience should be interested as what will happen next, and how the boys will deal with this. It is key that the begining of our film draws in the audeince as the film is most likely to be seen by the first time on BBC three and it is important that the viewers stay not simply change the channel.
The fact that it has two teenage boys as the main stars should attract a lot of younger viewers as they will be able to relate to the characters as they are just two average boys that make a mistake.
