As 47% of our demographic thought that psychological horror was the most effective genre, it made us want to do this genre as it is what our target audience would like to see.
80% of our audience thought that isolated grounds/abandoned house is the most effective location. This made us very happy with our caravan location as it is isolated and abandoned and intrinsically a perfect location for our clip.
93% of our demographic think that the victim should be young, also, 87% of our audience
thought that the character should be vulnerable. Therefore, the character of Darren fits in perfectly with these characteristics. However, 73% of our demographic did think the most effective gender for the victim would be a girl. Yet, as our character is young and vulnerable it is still very much what the audience feel would be a realistic victim for the clip.
As 53% of our target audience thought that the victim should be murdered, we took on board this observation and amended our treatment so that Darren is now brutally murdered by an anonymous antagonist at the end of the clip.
