The demographics of the type of audience the opening sequence will appeal to is very important as it determines the type of content I will use. The genre of the opening sequence is psychological thriller which will appeal those over a certain age bracket, predicted at anywhere form 12 and above to 18 and above. Due to the genre of the opening it will not be gender specific, however from researching other openings of the psychological thriller genre it tends to be male dominant. The education and occupation of the audience reflects how well they respond to a film, or in this case the opening. The type of audience for a psychological thriller need to be educated in order to follow complex plot lines as well as have the
capability to think about more than they are being shown on the image track.
Psychographics:
In terms of film, audiences are divided into several different categories that reflect their characteristics and hobbies etc.. The category of audience that physiological thriller movies aim to appeal to is the reformer or explorer group as they tend to be more open towards controversial and perplexing ideas that can be presented within a film of this genre. These groups also tend to be more socially aware and usually younger making them more impressionable (not always but the majority of the time). The curious and intrigues nature of these types of people makes them an idea audience for a psychological thriller as they will enjoy the fact they have to think about the films plot line; unlike an audience from the struggler category.
