GENRE
My chosen genre is avant garde. It is my favourite genre and one that I am very interested in, so I thought it would suit if I made my film in a genre I'm passionate about. I am inspired by other films of this genre that use techniques I love and want to take forward into my own film; an example of this is Amelie. It is an eponymous French film directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet, a director that I love for his creative and beautiful film works.
AUDIENCE
I have decided that my film will have quite a wide audience that is suitable for people of most ages, genders, ethnicity, etc. Specifically for age I think people aged 15+ would be interested in watching it as it is based around a person of a similar age and they could find it relatable.
Additionally it is an unusual topic and one that is away from the traditional films targeted at that age.
I created this survey using SurveyMonkey:

I asked 8 people to complete it. I found that while avant garde wasn't the most popular genre for an audience age 15+, most were still willing to watch a film of that genre even if it wasn't their first choice, as long as it interested them. I know that avant garde isn't generally a well known or popular genre of choice which I have taken into account when considering my survey results, however knowing that it is still something people of my target group would watch I still want to make my film in that genre.
NARRATIVE
My film will be from a third person narrative but based around the life of one person; it will have multiple bursts of narration covering some scenes with background music over the rest. I love the idea of simple third person narration over film as it gives the audience extra information while allowing them to focus on the film itself.
