We interviewed some of our peers asking the five questions:
- What are your expectations of the opening 2 minutes of any film?
"I should find out the main themes and a bit about the main characters"
"Know everything about what the film is trying to show me"
"Brief description (visually) of what's happening, the setting, the man characters"
"Set the scene- hooks you to the film"
- What are your expectations of the opening 2 minutes of a youth culture film?
"Find out what's going to happen, and how the film will develop"
"Get to the point"
"Show what area it's set in"
"Teenagers, walking around [...] in groups"
- Why do enjoy youth culture films?
"I can relate to them"
"I feel like I can relate to the problems the characters may feel"
"They are relatable to some of us"
"Teenagers enjoy watching other teenagers"
- How do you typically access films?
"On the internet"
"Download offline or DVD"
"Cinema or DVD"
"CInema is really expensive, so DVD or internet, peer to peer sharing"
- What is your favourite youth culture film?
"Kidulthood"
"Adulthood"
"Adulthood"
"(some mutterings with no real answer)"
What we did learn from our audience research was a lot of information we could use to make our film more appealing to our targeted audience. I realised that our genre of film really appeals to our age group, they enjoy seeing people their age in situations such as our characters Ceaser and Flo
Most people our age have watched the films like Adulthood and Kidulthood which our films is sort of inspired by, this means our audience was excited to hear about the genre of film we'll be making, we now know what are the expectations of our film from our audiences and we can work towards achieving these expectations
