Interview subject (Oscar)


This interviewee directly represents the target audioence that we are trying to target our main task at. He stated that the scariest movie that he ever watched was 'Saw 3'. Saw 3 is an extreme horror with lots of blood and gore which is very similar to our film. He also stated that he was scared of the main protaginist in A Nightmare On Elm Street (Jason). A Nightmare on elm street is also an extreme horror and in our film we will also be having a main protaginist that kills people too. He is also around the same age as the characters presented in our film. It seems that Oscar is the perfect example of our target audience.
