Our film deals with real life events, such as the Columbine Massacre, and centres on a sixth form college. Therefore it makes sense that our film would appeal to younger people still in education, and anyone else who was affected by the horrific events.
The product we have created contains characters mostly within the 15-25 year old age group, and so that mean that an audience of a similar age would be able to connect to the action in the film more easily. And also our film contains action and gun violence, which means that the males in the audience would be more interested in it.
Though our film does contain gun action, it is not done in a way that glamorizes it, like other big budget Hollywood films do, but it deals with it in a realistic way and encourages uncomfortable audience voyeurism. Because of the deeper questions and real life events that it deals with, there is no reason that an older audience would not be interested in this film. Hollow Point is a smaller film, and
so the audience would probably have to read newpapers or other articles similar to broadsheets. This means that the 15-25 year old and older audience is probably, educated and interested in current affairs.
our film has more of an Arthouse film feel to it, because it deals with serious issues. Therefore our secondary audience may be fans of more independent ‘indie’ films such as Elephant. These fans in turn may be university students still in education with lots of disposable income.
