Who would be the audience for your media product?
Our 'Saving Santa' film has a certificate of PG because it is aimed at families so has to be suitable for children. Everyone can watch our film, apart from very young children because of the comic fight scenes. Our film is suitable as a PG because the slapstick fighting scenes are quite comical and have a cartoon effect to them. The music, costumes and narrative all make our film suitable for all ages. The music aspect is likely to appeal to older children and teenagers the most, whilst the costumes are likely to entice younger children. The narrative is interesting and the story line for the film is original and not just another cheesy Christmas film. This would be a fantastic family film because it has something for all ages.
Target Audience
Despite our film being a PG, we thought that our main target audience would be teenage boys and older children because the comic fight scenes would appeal to them more and they would be the ones to enjoy the story line the most.
For example, our target audience would be someone like Joe. He is 12 years old and likes comedies. He also enjoys music. He would like the slapstick fighting scenes in this film because it has a comical aspect to it and would also be interested in the music used fr this film.
Our main target audience would be people from the UK and America, although we would get other audiences from around the world.

Home Alone
Similar to our film, Home Alone is also a PG. This is also a comedy and works well as a Christmas family film. There are many different types of merchandise for this film and all suit the PG certificate. For example, there is a fun family board game which is based on the film.

What I have learnt...
I have learnt a lot about audiences whilst making this film and have discovered what genres might appeal to what people. Our film has a comedy genre, as well as the obvious Christmas film genre, which, unlike Romances which is likely to appeal to women, appeals to everyone and is a good genre for a family Christmas film.
