Who is my Audience?

I think that the kind of people that would want to watch the film I plan on creating will fall into the Aficionados category or perhaps mainstream plus. These are the kind of people who rarely watch mainstream films and prefer to watch films that are different and more 'specialised'. Some people who fall into this cateogory may even go to the extent to say that they are 'Anti-Hollywood' even though they do occasionally watch mainstream american films.

Audience Profile

Jodie is 34 and a housewife. She is very family orientated and is married to 36 year old Robert and has 3 young children; Jamie, Jacob and Judith. Robert is a manager of a local bank and is at work all day until late so she often left to look after the children herself most week days apart from the odd days that Robert has off work and at the weekends.She doesn't like watching glamourous hollywood films as she doesn't like to watch beautiful, super skinny, fashionable women on screen as it just makes her feel down. She prefers to watch foreign language films, especially french ones as she wanted to be a French teacher when she was younger. She also likes watching films with a dark sense about them such as 'Changling' starring Angelina Jolie and the 'Lovely Bones' which do in a sense have a happy ending. These kind of films make her appreciate how lucky her life is and she goes to the cinema at least twice every 3 months in a bid to escape from her hectic life of looking after 3 hyperactive children all day. She occasionally gets Robert to come along much to his distress at her taste in films as he would rather watch a typical action film. Her favourite books are ones like 'The Timetravellers Wife' which take you on an emotional ride but always have a happy ending which she likes the films she watches to have too so that she can go away feeling happier and uplifted.
