Target Audience for magazine

Due to my film magazine containing different genres my target audience is widely spread from early teenage years to the late middle ages, due to it involving information on animations alongside horrors, romances, comedies. I want the magazine to be family, friendly attracting a wider range of ages.

Horror production title ideas

These are my first ideas for my horror production titles. The name 'AWOKEN' comes from the plot of my production (the dark legend/spirit that is unleashed after a little girl dabbles in the unknown). I believe a one word title creates a sharp intensity and leaves the audience questioning what the production is going to be about, it leaves them to think. Using colours such as red, white, grey and blacks, that are fitted with the genre of horror fits in with the conventions and will enable the public to have an idea of what the production will be like.

The first title idea is the one i prefer out of the three, the sharp and bold writing draws the eye in and with the red contrasted against the erie grey smoke background the words clearly stand out. With the shadowing effect behind the words of a white blur reminds the reader of supernatural elements which is a teaser of what the film is going to contain. The smoke effect background gives it more of an interesting but scary feel making it look much more eerie.

The second title idea is very dark and with the shadowing effect of the word it not only repeats the title for the audiences eye but makes it look scary due to the dark shadowing effect. Using the colours of red and black to fit in with the genre was my idea to draw in my target audiences interested in the specific genre. With the dark shadow behind the words makes it spooky while giving the title a much more interesting feel,

The third title, i like also because of the darkness of the background but the white ghostly smoke which creates not only an insight to the plot but a scary feel in that the audience will relate to the supernatural. The red i have used for the words i have chosen to be much darker to contrast against the background but to also make the whole title seem dark and mysterious.


I used the ideas for my title from the title of the production of mama, which i gave an analysis in my earlier research.
