We decided on our target audience being teenagers/young adults aged between 15-22 as we think our genre of social realism would more relatable to this age group. To adjust to our target audience we are including 'Propp's character types' theory such as the 'victim' character, which is clear with some of our characters such as the homeless woman and the victim of sex trafficking, as they are portrayed in our short film as being victims of society and external forces that are out of there control.
Our group also uses 'Propp's character types' as we use villains in our storyline, such as the Mother and sex trafficker. We felt using two of the character types of the Victim and the Villain would be effective as they are binary opposites (Levi-Strauss' theory) and we think this would make it clearer to our target audience at how we want each of our characters to be portrayed.
