Audience research

My target audience for my thriller is teenager between the ages of 16-18. The reason i have chosen that target audience is because i am 16 and i know what i want to see out of a thriller film. It has been proven that when it comes to teenagers, suspense and mystery is the main thing that we want out of a thriller film. Films like James Bond Skyfall appeal to us purely because there is violence, suspense and a love story. The reason we appeal to this is because this is what teenagers are interested in. For some reason we find that these things create a good thriller film for us. That is why i have chosen Teenagers between the ages of 16-18.
