Target Audience: and How We Are Going To Attract Them

The target audience for short films is roughly evenly split between male and female viewers who are typically 15-30 years old. Higher social classes and psychographic groups like "Succeeders", "Aspirers", and "Individualists" tend to be more interested in short films which often address niche topics and social issues. The document concludes that, unlike feature films, short films target a niche audience of young, passionate film enthusiasts seeking inspiration from other filmmakers' works.

• Higher number of women studying creative
arts.

other filmmaker’s work

Social Class

Higher social classes are more likely to be


interested in watching short films, as they
tend to address social issues (e.g. politics)
which lower classes are often not as
interested in.

Psychographics
Succeeders:
Film enthusiasts that are often already successful on the
film industry, visiting film festivals and looking for talented
filmmakers.
Aspirers:
Film enthusiasts, often young, who seek inspiration from
other filmmaker’s work, hoping to break into the film
industry themselves.
Individualists:
Can often identify with niche topics that are the subject
of short films.

Wednesday, 26 November 14
To sum it up:

Short films mostly target young, bright film


enthusiasts, both male and female.
It is important to understand that, unlike
feature length films, short films do not target
a broad, but a niche audience.
