4 examples of official film websites

as you allredy know, our trailer was based upon a gangster/action genre, and we have looked into 4 different sites that can related to our trailer.

http://shankthefilm.com/
this is from shank, the way this appeals to its target audience is, as soon as you open the website you can see a group of kids running, and they look as if there running from a larger group of boys behind them, and this is what is happening to the teens inthis day and age, gangs are becoming more popular and so is violence between them. this is how i believe this site appeals to its audience, by making them feel as if the charecter knows what their going through.

http://www.1daythemovie.co.uk/
this tarailer is from 1day, i think the site does not appeal to its target audience properly, because the movie is aimed at teenagers from 15 to about 26 years olds, and the site looks as if it were aimed to ages higher because it shows 2 grown men and 2 grown women, where as in shank it shows teenagers, but from the site u can see one of the men (angle) is holding a gun, so you know there will be violence and this is a reason the audience would want to watch it, but it does say ''2 crews'' so the viwers know there will be more then 4 people and the rest of it says ''2crews 1city 24hours 1DAY'', by adding that makes the audience wonder what the movies going to be about so therefore attracting and appealing to them.

http://www.adulthoodthemovie.co.uk/
this is adulthood, i think this one appeals very well to its audience, as soon as u open it it begins to show clips from the movie and once its loaded it goes in and shows u the main charecters standing infront of buildings and you can also hear music play, the sound track from the movie, i think these work very well together because it shows the producers put alot of work into the site, and if we can see the site is good, how will the movie be? and another way it appeals to its audience is by the look and style of each charecter, they are dressed as if the 'are from the hood'' and some look smart, this could appeal to a wider audience because once you watch the movie you can see each charecteris different and not all are the same, so the audience can feel as if they have some one to relate to.

http://www.kidulthood.co.uk/
this is kidulthood, as soon as you enter their website you can straight away see how it apels to its audience, it shows small quotes from different news papers, this straightaway engages the audience because as soon as i opend it i didnt look no where else but at the quotes, and because they are praising the movie and it makes the audeince feel better about it, so strait away they are appealing. another way is you can see a charecter (sam) with his hood up and holdaing a baseball bat, and from my views i think this was a very good thing to do, because to any person gettin a hood and a baseball bat is the easiest and i can fairly say most youth wil have a hood with a baseball bat, so they feel as if this charecter can also relate to them and possibly think like they think which can help explain why he has the bat and his hood up.
