When we firstly carried out our research and planning onto the film genre of thriller, we recognised that the characteristics of the genre thriller most suited the older generation, this is because when reading the film rating categories from The British Board Film association about the rating of 12a we realised that the themes that it includes is just moderately mature where as we felt our script was a mature theme as it involved a possibly mentally ill character.
So we decided that we would not like to tailor our film to the younger audience so decided to aim our film to the 15 age rating audience. In this categories is states that it has a strong horror genre and can have moderate drug abuse but just not encouraged.
Choosing this audience made us more flexible in our story line and when actually filming. Looking over our finished film, I can say that our chosen audience still suits our film this is because we do include a short scene where the actress inhibits some sort of drug but it is not clear of what kind, also our film is strongly psychological so requires a moderately mature audience to understand it.
The role she plays presents a mature and shows in depth thought caters for our 15 rating too.

Not only were we looking for a female actress but a young one, this also narrows our audience. Our actress was also a teenager (17) which also meant we
The scores we use in the scenes also reflect our mysterious and atmospheric theme which suits our audience.
