Genre/Target Audience

The film Genre is an Urban Crime Drama/Drama. Similar comparable titles are of the same genre and focus on things that not everybody knows about on urban streets.

The target audience for this project is individuals from the age of 15 – 24. I feel that the individuals in this age bracket are who the film will impact the most and most of the viewers will be from this age bracket. Therefore the film rated a 15.
