Who would be the audience for our media product?
For our OTS, we aimed to target an audience of people between 16 and 18 years of age, the most prominent age group interested in horror, and anyone aged above this margin. We chose this age range due to the slightly more disturbing nature of our film, which we believe may not appeal to people younger, as well the dramatic pacing is something more engaging for younger people.
To see if we were right to think this, we interviewed people from our target audience group and got their thoughts on our OTS.

Facebook Feedback
We also uploaded our OTS to Facebook, for further feedback.
Our research proved that our OTS was appealing to our target audience.
Year 9 Feedback
We also had feedback from a year 9 class so that we could see opinions/reviews of those that were under the age range of our target audience to see if it would still appeal to them as well as older teenagers.
The overall feedback was positive. It was well edited and well cast and the effects were good. The only type of negative feedback we got was that the sound/music we used didn't fit, despite this, we thought that it did because it is intended to be contrapuntal audio to the OTS's visuals.
