Here is a mindmap which demonstrates a few aspects of the target audience which need to be consider when making the film, and it includes audience theories which back up the ideas which I have written about. For example, by aiming a film with a teenage protagonist at an audience of teenagers and young adults, they will be able to see a part of themselves within the film, which will give them both entertainment and a fulfilment of things which they have perhaps been unable to do in their own lives. A similar theory is applied when targeting the film towards an audience of people who are predominantly white race, because the majority of the staring characters are white race - this means that the audience will be able to emphasise more with the text, and use the hypodermic needle theory in order to take more away from the characters.
Creating this mindmap will help when considering the Mise-en-scene of our film, because it will remind me of what needs to be included in order to aim it at the audience which I want it to be aimed towards.
