Feedback From Our Rough Cut

We collected feedback from our target audience on our rough cut. This will enable us to make the relevant changes to our rough cut so that it progresses and becomes more enjoyable for the target audience by the end of our final cut.

Target Audience

We decided to use this actor due to the fact that he fits the target audiences description when dressed correctly. We dressed him with a 'hoody' because this is the stereotypical dress code for 'mainstream' society. We have made this decision because we believe that the music video will have a greater effect on the specified target audience if they can relate it to their own lives.

We have decided to target our music video at 'mainstream' people in todays society. The stereotypical mainstream person will commit petty crime, be a bit of a street rat, race their car and be known in general as a chav. These mainstream people of todays society are between the ages of 16 and 24.
