I found that the topic graffiti does not appeal to my target audience because they do not do graffiti themselves so they wouldn’t be interested in the topic and because of the area they live in does not have graffiti their not really intrested in knowing about it but thinking about it could happen to them they would consider wathcing a documentary. I was told to look at the art side of graffiti instead of just the negative points of graffiti. To make this appeal more to my target audience I could look at an area which is more like their area and talk about how that type of an area has changed from being from a high standard to a low standard. I was told it is always aimed mainly at the male gender than the female. My audience would want to know is graffiti related to crime or a piece of art and what is done about it. My audience would like for me to film my documentary in both area’s in a nice clean area with high standards and an area with low standards with lots of graffiti. My audience thought that graffiti is a crime but is also a piece of art but if people dislike it it is a crime. There are places where graffiti is aloud therfore graffiti is seen as art, and people send out their messages through there graffiti.

My focus group has affected the viability for my idea by telling me that my topic is more male based and it would appeal more to the males than females because males do graffiti more than females. I though I could discuss the matter in different locations to show the audience what graffiti says about an area, and to look at the area’s where graffiti is aloud because it is seen as art in that area.
