Thriller opening final cut

Q4 - Who would be the target audience for your thriller task?

This is Larry, a 28 year old living in the UK In Peterborough who works in a typical office job that he finds incredibly repetitive and mundane. He lives an incredibly simple life, surrounded by an urban setting and general greyness. Perhaps through his everyday experiences of a soulless surrounding, he has developed an appreciation for TV and film that explore the gritty and dark nature of Urban culture and society, and enjoys the slightly glamorised depictions of crime and violence in Media such as 'Breaking Bad' and 'Peaky Blinders', and the Concept that there is an underlying world of crime, violence, drama and death within any urban location as it is seemingly non-existent in his life and this gives him some form of escape from his day to day life, whilst also being relatable enough to stop His overwhelming sense of cynicism from taking away from the immersion of these texts. Larry has also developed a liking for Thrillers and story-driven texts and likes to think of his tastes in media as higher-brow than the average consumer. Furthermore he has an unnatural hatred for sequels and prequels, and believes that there is a lack of originality and variety within mainstream media, therefore he enjoys texts that tackle important topics such as morality and mortality and is more likely to watch a smaller budget, art-house film than any film considered to be 'mainstream'
