Task Four: Would your film be limited to a UK audience or might it have a global appeal?


6. Would your film be limited to a UK audience or might it have a global appeal?

We feel our film could potentially be a global success, perhaps seeking its success in America or all around Europe. The global appeal could come from the British slang used, or maybe the fact that it is set in suburban London. However this could differ. Certain factors that we may choose to use or include in our trailer, such as the urban location or the British actors, may give the film a worldwide appeal, because of the high appeal of the accents, however, it could also act on the flip side and take away the worldwide appeal, because of the language perhaps being difficult to understand by some viewers. For example, while having some success in the UK, Anuvahood went straight to DVD in America. It was felt that an urban story quite specific to the UK that parodied other British 'urban themed' dramas that were released straight to DVD in America was never going to have a big appeal. Seeing as our film has an 'urban theme', we feel we can adapt the same idea towards our film. All of this included, we feel our film could indeed be a global success.
