Target audience

After looking at the content that different films include me and my group came to a decision that our target audience is going to be aimed at people who are at the age of 15 and above, we chose to aim our film at people of this age as we feel that the plot would appeal more to a teenage audience and they would find our film more interesting as the people who included within our film are around the same age as our target audience. one of the main reasons for rating our film at an age of 15 is because the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC)  states that films that are aimed at people of this age include things such as discriminative language or behaviour, strong violence and portrayals any sexual activity. therefore I feel this is appropriate to base our film at this age as our film includes a stalker which slightly links with portrayals of sexual activity as our film is based around a stalker, therefore we are going to aim our film at this specific age group.
