Things to consider when creating a film

Age - what's suitable for them to see. The storyline has to be suitable for the audience its aimed at.

Gender - The male audience dominates the cinema, therefore action filmsshould be very popular in cinemas

Location (of audience)- Not everyone can afford to go to the cinema. there could also be a language barrier releasing a film in a country where the native language isn't that of the film.

Occupations - TV listings/cinema listings can become competition. Catching people when they are home e.g. holidays

Lifestyle choices (interests)- Movie advertisements for women in womens magazines & advertisements for men in mens magazines

Politics - Newspapers lean towards different political parties may influence there readers.

Ethnicity - Ethnics should be considered by having a wide range of people with different backgrounds, ethnic traits, allegiance, or associations.

Attitudes - Similar Attitudes to real life can make a movie/tv show very popular for example the inbetweeners or misfits.
