Aims and context.

My aim primarily is to create a short film within the post apocalyptic genre.
A major part of my aim is to please and entertain the audience using various elements within the film itself.
the target audience for my film is 16 to 24 year olds and is a unisex film. the reason for this is the film is based around teenagers and so this age of target audience would appreciate this the most. we also believed both males and females could relate to this film and so this also helps when defining our target audience.
I want my target audiences to feel scared whilst watching the film but also to be able to relate to the characters in the film.
The film itself will have dominant ideologies taken from the youth of today’s society and so helps the audience to warm to the characters an decide for themselves who they like and don’t like.

My role within this film is the cinematographer and as part of this I will be in charge of the mise en scene of each scene filmed.
As a cinematographer I will be taking control of how each scene is filmed and what is in front of the camera as part of mise en scene.

One film of which is a big influence to our film is the Danny Boyle film 28 days later.
Due to this I have done some research based on the genre and will be looking at previous work from Anthony Dod Mantle who was the cinematographer of 28 days later,the last king of scotland,antichrist and slumdog millionaire.
One issue that I had problems with previously was planning the shots so that they showed the audience the meaning and reactions I wanted to project so this time more planning is going into the way in which our shots will be taken and were they will be shot.

I have had some practice at making a small film previously in media studies and so much of my experience from there will be used upon this film however learning from my mistakes like above.
