production log 4

This week, I learnt about my target audience. The audience my opening sequence would be aimed towards would be a niche British group. This audience would be able to relate easily to the film as it will be based in England so will have cultural references. There will also be themes and situations that they can relate to such as violence, drugs/smoking, alcohol etc. The audience can relate to the themes as it would be something they would see regularly. The film will also have the type of interests that a niche British audience would like to see in the film.

I have also learnt about the institutions involved in the production of social realist films. The institutions involved are normally niche ones. Major companies don't get involved in realist films as it can bring down their representation towards thee audience. This shows me that i need to use unknown companies in my film reflecting on what institution would actual be involved in it.
