2. Audience Profile
• Primary Audience
– Kids aged 0-14 , this is because this movie
includes child humour such as the
minions language. The target audience is
also this as the story (plot) is not very
complex , this is suited to 0-14 year olds
as they can understand the movie. My
final reason why this movie is aged 0-14
year olds is that it teaches kids about right
and wrong , this is because Gru (main
character) helps and stops villains which
shows them that being a villain is wrong.
The gender isn't specific this is because it
doesn't’t specifically involve just men or
women characters
• Secondary Audience
• Is 20-40 year olds this is because adults will
most likely take their kids to watch the movie
therefore there will be some adult humour so
that they don’t get board. Also the adults may
have seen the previous movies which may lead
them to go watch the newest one with there
kids.

as it isn't a real place. The actors in this movie
such as Bradley cooper may also influence the
target audience as he is a very famous actor.

an 80s soundtrack which may appeal to adults
born in that decade. Also this movie isn't aimed
