So... who is watching?

 

Target Audience

Target audience is huge component to whether a film is successful or not. Our film can be specifically geared towards many groups of people, let me explain some...

First, because our film is about sports, athletes will be interested in watching. I think that all ages would be able to watch this, however, I feel like it would be more for teenagers. I think that teen athletes is more specific because that is the age that people start to deal with those stresses from something that used to be so fun. When you become older in sports, it starts to become more of a competition and less of a fun activity. I think that a lot of teenage athletes would be able to relate to this and hope that what they get from it is that they are not alone in this struggle by many.

As our main character is a female gymnast, female gymnast is going to be expected to be a main component of our target audience. Gymnastics is a very complex and different sport from others. It is competitive and very much an individual sport, despite having a "team." Each person is set against each other, and this can create a lot of self-deprivation when one person is not as "up to par" with someone else.

I would want this film for adults to view this film so that they can get an understanding of what their kids, or just kids in general, may feel. Some parents may not realize the pressure that their children feel or may not be able to properly communicate. I hope that our short film will be able to present those emotions properly.
