Our media product uses typical forms and conventions of real media products of this genre as we have incorporated such key features as; a dark, eerie setting; a hoard of flesh eating zombies and Byronic, everyday man, hero. these features have helped us to maintain an original piece with key elements in order that we can stick to the basic features of this genre. However it has also hindered us in our development as we have had to stick to these guidelines in order that the piece fits in with this genre. Due to this, we could not do everything we wanted to, however we added some different conventions to create a well rounded product.
our media product represents the social group of indie teenagers. as our two main charactors represent this group. this is used a lot in commedy horror movies however it is usualy emphasised more, to give a bolder depiction of the person.
a typical example of the kind of media institution that may distribute our product is paramount pictures as they are good distributers of this genre of film.
the target audience for our media product would be teenagers as our piece is to violent for younger audiences and fits in well with steriotypical popular films for this age group.
we attracted our audience with catchy music and titles and we adressed our audience with the use of graphic scenes of violence and creating and playing on steriotypical personalities.
