The reason I like Hush, I like the film hush because of the unexpected plot
and the nature behind the film is not a common plot which makes the film
more unique and unpredictable.

also show the development of his character and how he made it

I think my target audience would appeal to people from the age of
21-45. I wouldnt set this any lower due to graphic contents but no
actual gore. My target audience would be for people who enjoy
emotional dramas, and for people who can emotionally connect
with the story line (Narrative). The gender I think that would
connect more with the narrative would be woman as they are more
emotional than men. Would you agree? If not explain why
First question, Jack stated I think this genre is nice however, in my opinion this type of film
is for people older than my age which is 16.
Second question Jack answered I think the plot is a very detailed and descriptive, I feel
the narrative is very realistic which appeals to me because I loathe animations and non
realistic films.
Third question I think the target audience may bit a bit too young however, this is
personal preference as I usually like horror films and less upsetting films, as us viewers can
relate to topics like this which causes upset. On the other hand, the realistic narrative
makes the film look good and appealing too most ages.
Fourth and final question jack replied I think what would make this narrative better would
be more drama as its a emotional drama but all I am hearing about it the emotional side.
Evidence of feedback
An individual I asked to complete my questionnaire was Megan Roger, a 17 year old girl
and A-Level Psychology, English, Art and media student from Harlington upper school
sixth form.
Megan stated to the first question- i prefer romantic films however, I like emotional
dramas as theyre mostly realistic.
For the second question Megan was asked she replied yes it does appeal to me
because we can see how he overcomes it all.
The third question Megan stated I agree with the gender the film is aimed at and the
age range from 21-45.
The fourth question Megan answered no it seems good.
