Audience Profile

the target audience for this short film will be aimed at mostly younger adults rather than older ones; this is because my film is  more of an anti-war film and the younger generation are mostly more towards the anti-war side. Also as my film's genre is war and action it may not appeal to people who do not enjoy that genre who normally tend to be women.

short film festivals

short film festivals are where short film creators go to show off there new creations and have it seen by other creators, critics and just normal people coming watch. it is a great way to show off your product to hundreds of people. some example of short film festivals include: London Short Film Festival UK Film Festival Cinemagic International Film Festival If I was to submit to a film festival I would choose the London short film festival as it only focuses on short films and gives me the chance to show off my short film to one of the biggest cities in the world. This festival is the mecca for the UK’s young creative talent and a significant date in the UK film calendar.

Genre Research

War Genre when watching a war movie you would expect certain things to happen. Themes explored include combat, survival and escape, sacrifice, the futility and inhumanity of battle, the effects of war on society, and the moral and human issues raised by war. These can depend on the type of war film as some films are pro-war and you can expect to see a lot of action and brotherhood, painting the protagonist as a hero. while for anti-war movies you can  see that they can be more gruesome and more emotional Action Genre these sort of films have the protagonist or protagonists end up in a series of challenges that typically include violence, extended fighting, physical feats, and frantic chases. Action films tend to feature a resourceful hero struggling against incredible odds, which include life-threatening situations, a villain, or a pursuit which generally concludes in victory for the hero.
