Evaluation Question 5 - How Did You Attract Your Audience ?

We think the conventions of our title sequence appeal to our target audience as we tend to focus on the certain aspects.In the start of the movie we wanted to make sure that the bedroom looked as if it was a male teenagers bedroom.We had books to show he was in education and enjoyed reading .We also didn't put any electrical items minus his phone , as he is abused.

We had 2 actors , Yung Lolo who was the Male teenager  who ran away and we had a background actor who goes by the name Lloyd , Who will later befriend Lolo.The story line is very intriguing for the audience . The genre again is interesting for the audience . The genre is interesting for our audience because  it's a more thoughtful and intense than most teen films , as we focus on a serious matter of homeless and abuse . The location were chosen because we wanted be adventurous and wanted to show the distance travelled by Yung Lolo , this why our shots went from a rural area , the suburban estate  and then to central London . We filmed in Trafalgar square as we introduced our second character here but never actually showed him as a main character and this allowed us to film the time lapse as it flowed well with  the storyline and it is also allowed due to film a successful time lapse  .These Locations allow children from London to relate and may want to how the iconic city they live in made it to the big screen .The Title 'The Run' , has a ambiguous sense , which will make the audience want intrigued and it also implies action. Lolo Productions and Group 16 studies , these are production companies that specialise in Teen Drama films so hopefully they will recognise these two companies .

The rough cut feedback did give us a lot of things to work on , we took this criticism and used it in a constructive manner to improve our film.We had to remove one scene where the water bottle turns into a alcohol bottle in the father's hand .However this made the film more confusing as we did not have another reference to this man , so taking it out was the better option here . This feedback helped and it made us become aware of the miniature details that can make sections of the title sequence improve our camerawork and editing .

As should be obvious we have come to our gathering of people by distinctive manifestations of media, for example, Facebook occasions, tabloid article, YouTube and so forth. These are only a couple of the media ways that we could achieve our group of onlookers by speculation what they do most, for example, going on YouTube, staring at the TV or  simply wandering the web.Also we used sound cloud to promote the soundtrack produced by upcoming producers Ketchup on Bun . 

Our wider audience , would be adults who were interested in other youth Dramas such as Kidulthood .These people are referred to as ' urban adults', this due to the fact we are discussing a serious matter which is homelessness and adults may want to be informed on such a serious issue . 


After the cinema screening that happened at the screen in angel  , we questioned pupils and staff on did the title sequence appeal to them and the main response given was  through the music we created on garageband, it it assisted our story-line by showing us the mood of the teenager and how he felt  about running away from home. The time-lapse was also enjoyed by many , they thought it was unique, as we successfully showed the transition of light to dark through this , this was not tried by any other group .Although they thought the camera work at the end was rather shaky , this could have been improved  . The editing the audience also thought that it was fluid and it all came together and the titles also fitted in well into the title sequence.

This Location is known as Trafalgar Square, this is a well known location for teenagers who live in London , as they have probably visited here before , or at least know of it . It helps make the Film more realistic as this an actual place for a actual problem .  

This is the scene with our young Male Protagonist , he can be related to as he comes from  a working class background and doesn't appear ro be well of , this makes us more sympathetic and gravitate towards him more ,as he is less well of  , therefore we like him as we learn how well off we have it compared to him. 

 

This was the shot that took , due to that fact it made our film not flow and created too much confusion as there is no other reference to the father .Therefore we took this out to avoid conversion .
