Who would be the audience for your media product and why?

There isn’t just one type of audience for gangster films. For example, the top rated film of all time that has been watched by millions is a gangster film, The Godfather. This would indicate that the appeal for these type of films is very wide, with an audience to match.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068646/ - This is the imdb page of The Godfather Part 1.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385002/ - This is the imdb page of Green Street Holigans.

In our questionnaire we asked, “Do you enjoy Crime/Gangster films?” Out of 20 people ranging from 13 to 56 years old, only 1 person disliked them. This shows that age is not an issue. Generally men enjoy gangster films more than women, as there is usually violence, a lot of blood and swearing, and this doesn’t appeal to everyone.

I think the rating for our film should be a 15 as there is some strong languange and uses of violence and threat. This enables more opportunity for a better box office... as 18 films restrict possible audience members.
