Preliminary Genre and Target Audience

The genre of the opening sequence to our programme is based on comedy, which is juxtaposed with the actual serious topical issue shown in the clip. To add humour keeps the viewer's interest of the movie clip, as well as with the addition of tension to keep the viewer engaged. The target audience is teenagers, because the type of humour involved is fairly immature for adult humour, but humour more understood by people older than children. Also, the issue involved in the clip mostly affects the adolescent age group, and would be good to do from our point of view, considering we fit that group. The characters in the clip are also supposedly teenage age group, which the audience can relate to.
