60's or 2010.
With our media piece we haven't made a certain decision on whether the film is set in the sixties or whether the character believes he is in the sixties but the film is set in the modern day. We both have different views on the piece and how, if we could continue the film, it would develop and end.
During the filming process, we had the problem of excluding modern reality and making sure that there was no evidence of the modern day. However, at the start of the task, we did think of setting it during the sixties and showing the life of a teacher in the sixties. The problem is, at the end of the filming task, we both had different views on our piece and noticed that, if we could continue, that the teacher character, would believe that he was in the sixties but was actually living in the present modern day.
The situation we have is that, because the character is in sixties clothing, we have a different take on how the film turns out. For example, if you were living in the sixties, you wouldn't know you were making a statement in the clothing, you would be wearing what, at the time would be fashionable. But, from a modern day society, the clothing would be stereotypical of that era and the viewing audience would expect the classic representation of sex, drugs and rock n roll.
Target Audience?
The way we both could finally present the film with the right background story, would be by having a showing to the target audience of our film, then getting feedback from them, to see what they believe the plot will pan out to become. Either a film of a teacher set in the 1960s or a teacher who believes he is in the sixties and living his life of sex, drugs and rock n roll.
Another point of showing it to an audience, would be finding out what our true target audience would be. We have placed the film under a 15+ certification. But however, the target audience would be different to the certification, as audience members would be a varied age due to the fact that the film has the nostalgic value of the sixties, the music, the representation and the society of that time would appeal to older audiences.
