Audience Profile
Demographic
Demographics is the statistical study of a population specifically looking at certain aspects such as age, gender, race, etc. Demographic information is in media marketing to group and classify an audience into categories.
The NRS scale is divided into different categories which are: A, B, C1, C2, D and E (ABC1 and C2DE). This scale is based on the occupation and income that the individuals have.
However some of these classes may overlap which might not be as suitable for a target audience.
Advantages:
Information is easily accessible
Simple categorisation
Disadvantages:
Some classes may overlap
The occupation is based on the head of the household
This is my own Demographic Table that i created based on my short film target audience.
Psychographic
Psychographics is the study of an individuals personality characteristics, lifestyle, values, etc.
This is based on the assumption that by investigating what an individual or group types of products and brands that they are likely to purchase will reflect their characteristics and patterns of living.
Advantages:
Wider variety within categories/ groups
Creates individual groups
Disadvantages:
Some individuals may have more than one personality causing overlapping

Finding and analysing a good presentation
I researched videos showing how to give a good presentation and analysed the information given to me and applied it to my own work. My chosen video that I used to analyse was presented by Carl Kwan as he gave three very clear and significant tips and steps in being able to create a positive presentation as well as keeping your audience engaged. I viewed Carl Kwan's footage of being able to give a good presentation and took note of key information that was relevant in applying it to my own work.
Presentation Tip: 3 Steps To Easily
Introduce Yourself- Notes

Introduction to my own presentation
Would you recognise a victim of Psychological abuse? Did you know that many individuals who suffer this abuse may not even acknowledge that they are going through it.
Good morning, my name is Loren Turner, welcome to my presentation. I am here today to spread the awareness of psychological abuse and in hope of succeeding in winning the commission to create my short film. I want to be able to inform you of how severe the abuse can be and possible outcomes that it can have on a victim. Creating this short film will help those in need in being able to express the awful affects and torture that many endure.
Even if an individual who does not experience psychological abuse views this short film they will hopefully take matters further such as using the information given from the short film and applying it to others around them which could potentially help real life victims. Victims do not have to suffer and deal with this type of abuse silently nor alone.
