Research into target audience.

The audience in which we have chosen will be suited for females of ages from late teens to late twenties, in a C1 AND C2 category. The audience that will be watching will be happy and most likely be into some sort of performing art - singing , dancing or acting. The type of music in which the audience will enjoy will be recent music as well as music which fits in well within certain musicals.

Target audience findings ...

In order to collect the information needed to focus on the best groups to approach , we used a social networking group - face book. We then asked questions to see how we could make our title sequence to the best of out ability. we also did this to see what idea's we could incorporate into our title sequence, this is some of the feedback we received..

The questions we asked...

what is your favourite musical, and why?
What do you expect to happen in a musical?
What do you expect the main character in a musical to look like?
where do you think is the most typical location for a musical to be set?

The feedback we got ...

Megan Gorman chicago because the story line is very good and the music is catchy and varied. I expect a musical to have a good storyline with a main character that is focused on and a good opening sequence. I expect the main character to be quite pretty as that is just what is usual in musicals. A musical is typically set in either a small place, or somewhere very big (i.e. moulin rouge in paris)

Lucy Woods my favourite musical would have to be hairspray as i saw it live on stage and it made me smile ear to ear the whole way through! I expect a musical to incorporate catchy songs that appeal to a wide audience and it has effect you in some way.

Genre Research Summary

Musicals; The titles are normally very bold and colourful making a statement. The music is usually in keeping with the film and also to set the mood for how the characters are feeling. The characters introduced are usually the main characters and represent what the story is going to be about. The most dominant type of mise en scene used is the background setting to show where the film is based and usually in musicals the costumes as well as the show the difference between the characters. Close ups are used to show emotion on the characters face to create enigmas for the audience. Genre is established in the opening sequence by the combination of the font used for the title, the costumes worn and the music and settings.
