Audience Theory in Relation to My Trailer

I believe that my trailer would be more relatable to those who are in favour of challenges to society. Researching into other products such as video games and films, as well as their target audiences has helped me to realise that in fact, many of these people want the same thing. Although, like B+K's audience uses and gratifications theory, many of these people may use my trailer and overall product for different reasons, I believe that it all comes down to one thing that my target audience will use this for, and that's escapism.

My product isn't supposed to be informative, and because of the storyline and concept, it's not necessarily relatable either. I believe that the main use for my trailer would genuinely be for escapism. I researched Blizzard games, and found that the majority of the audience use this as escapism too. I believe that this would be the same for my trailer due to the similar concepts and nature of both products. I also believe that this trailer would not be very suitable to those who believe strongly in capitalism being the way to go, as my trailer focuses heavily on the fall of the government and system, rendering any form of capitalism that once existed, useless. Overall, I believe that my trailer relates heavily to marxism for this reason. Thus a marxist reading of my trailer would see it as a challenge to society.
