Audience research.

We have decided that for our film the appropriate age rating would be 15. This is because some of the content of our film would not be suitable for people under this age. The reason we chose the 15 rating is because we believe that because our film includes zombies, it is quite a mature theme that may scare people of a younger age. Also, because of the zombies, the thing that is most common is that they would need to be killed so the film will include lots of violence and weapons. The age rating is appropriate as the themes throughout the film are too mature for anyone under the age of 15 and also that parents may not want to expose their children to these sort of things until they believe they are old enough. Our film would also have to be put at a 15 rating as it may include a large amount of strong language due to the nature of the film. Another reason that our film must be rated at a 15 is because people of a younger age may feel the need to copy things they see throughout the film which would be considered as wrong. We have decided that our target audience would be from 15 to 30 year olds. This is because people outside of our target range may not like this sort of thing as it is quite a modern idea and the older generation may not find it suitable or may not like to think about these sorts of things. We have decided that our film would be generally aimed at a British audience as it has been filmed in Britain. It would also be mainly aimed at people who are interested in apocalypses or films of a similar nature.
