Target audience!

The target audience my group and I are aiming for is around 15-25.
This is because the idea of our film being based on a Coming of Age theme, it may contain some inappropriate scenes and strong languages. I think that the age group we have chosen is a suitable one because teenagers might experience some of the scenes, and can possibly relate.
Whilst researching different films that are in the same genre, we have found that the age ranges are usually a 15 or 18 depending on the scenes and whether they are graphic and mainly the language they use.
 Our idea has been heavily influenced by the drama series 'Skins' as it is something we enjoy watching, as typical teenage girls we should be able to relate to it, yet we can as it is such an extreme stereotype and none of us, or our friends are as reckless as the characters. This is the style we would like our film to be, very extreme compared to real life and extremely exaggerated.
The youth of today is very stereotyped and looked down upon as if were bad people and we care about nothing but ourselves. When this couldn't be wrong, as more than ever teens are doing better in the GCSE and A-levels, there are more people than ever applying for uni, with 50% of these people are under the age of 20 years old. Young people are often scrutinised for being unemployed but with more and more jobs being cut its so hard to compete with older people with so much more experienced and qualifications then a younger person like myself, parents/grandparents and most older people do not realise how hard young people try to get jobs. 
 The truth is these stereotypes couldn't be more wrong, and i believe these stereotypes are though of and portrayed in the media, as we know the media constantly focuses on the negative instead of the positive, meaning everybody is left with this picture in their head, creating the stereotypes. 
I believe the idea and story we have created in our film is a perfect mix of what a teen really wants, Im sure all teens wished there weekends consisted of hanging out with there friends, going to wild partys, and doing what they want when they want instead of sitting at home watching TV, babysitting there siblings, doing homework and eating. Yet although most teens desire this life im sure they would also enjoy being royalty.
