Question 4: Who would be the audience for your media product?
Maslow's hierarchy
Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a motivational theory containing a five tier model of human needs. The hierarchy can be divided into deficiency needs and growth needs. The deficiency needs are said to motivate people when they are not met.The longer the need is left, the stronger it will become.
My media product links to a physiological feeling as well as the feeling of safety and security. In my thriller opening, the girl is locked in an unknown place and the audience do not know how long she had been down there. Therefore, this affects the girl's physiological state as she had no free will to look after herself, it is all in the hands of her kidnapper. Furthermore, safety of the girl is challenged as the thriller opening shows the antagonist travelling towards where the girl is secretly locked up and so it is inferred that the person is going to hurt her, especially when the screen cuts to black as the door opens and there is a loud, non-diegetic scream at the end.
