Target Audience Interview

To help create our trailer, as research we have been asked to interview a member of our target audience to produce the best possible outcome for our trailer. These are the questions I have asked and the target audiences responses:

What would you expect from a typical crime trailer?

• Has a good story and interesting actors

What are your favourite things about crime films & trailers?

• Uniqueness(period drama/personality of a key investigator)
• Storyline and sub plot (personal relationship)

What is your favourite crime (film/trailer/series) that you have seen? and why is it your favourite?

• Father Brown, unique character, intellectual plots and twists
• Silence of the lambs

Do you prefer a film that follows a structural plot, or one that changes slightly and includes flashbacks etc? Why do you prefer the one you have chosen?

• Flashbacks, so you can work out how certain decisions or assumptions are made, e.g Sherlock

Do you have any advice/ideas of what can take place in our trailer?

• Have a story with a sub plot, keep us entertained by making us think 'who did it?' or when will it happen
