Crime thriller Target audience

Target audience for crime thrillers

when looking at crime thrillers target audience you will need to look at both crime and thriller films to understand the audience crime thrillers are aimed at.

Crime drams target audience are both female and male of a mature age because of the strong language and scenarios. with the male side they get stereotyped to watch crime dramas as they offer a female actress that is beautiful and in the trailers it will always show some sexual nature of that woman to draw in the male audience and this called male gaze. this is the stereotype for men because as soon as there is a beautiful female everyone assumes that they will watch the film therefore its being stereotypical. with the target audience it can range from the minimal age allowed to watch all the way up to around 55. this is why its hard to specifically say what the target audience is because of its range. its also because both females and males both find crime drama's very interesting.

Thrillers target audience is slightly different to crime as thriller will appeal to of a younger audience because young adults find this type of film interesting as of the plots involved in the film that the audience feel intrigued by it. the normal certificate is 15 the reason why is because it has freighting scenes and being violent. thats why must thrillers appeal to 15-21 years olds its because they want to watch films that excite them, get there heart pumping and mainly make them feel apart of the film. thrillers appeal to females and males. the reason for males is because of the action throughout the film and it gets the heart pumping and while for the females why it draws them in because there are normally unanswered questions in the film and females like to try and figure them out.

so by mixing the two together you get a crime thriller and to drawn in your audience you need a good film trailer that makes both target audiences watch it and say that they are going to watch that. so by making a come thriller trailer you will need action, mystery, male gaze and frighting scenes. this is because it will attract a mix of people as it appeals to a massive variety of people, this means a crime thriller has a wider target audience and then it means it can make more money as more people are drawn into watching the film.
