PP- Target Audience Fact File


Target Audience: Example fact file/profile

Our primary target audience is 12-24 year old girls. Here is an example of a fact file/social media profile of our 'typical' primary target audience.


Why we chose these characteristics
14 is an age in the middle of our target audience so this is who is our direct targets. Even though The Pussycat Dolls are an American girl group we put this example as living in the UK as PCD are a world wide known band and Nicole Sherzinger is a judge on the UK X Factor. For interests we chose these two as they are stereotypically things that teenage girls enjoy doing and both are seen in our music video because of this and because it is so relatable to teenage girls. Her hobbies, dancing and singing, are written because they would be likely to be interested in these and music if they listen and follow the PCD. Their favourite TV shows are popular reality TV shows such as Xfactor (Nicole is a judge on) and I'm a celebrity get me out of here another member of the PCD was on last year. Their celebrity crush is James Arthur who was one of Nicole's acts on the Xfactor last year and is very current and popular with teenagers.

PP- Production name


Our Production Company Name

The name for our production company is MKTP Productions.

We chose this name because it is simple and therefore easy for people to remember. It also sounds professional and is straight to the point. Since deciding the name we have been able to create a facebook, twitter and instagram for our company so we can easily be found on many social media platforms.

KH- Shoot 3


Shoot 3 - 29/11/13

On Friday the 29th, we filmed the older girl footage. We used the same location (bedroom) as the younger girls and outside locations to signify the urban genre, such as a street and a skate park. The girls all came with their hair and make up done big and bold to save time so that we could begin filming straight away. We started in the bedroom and shot footage of them 'doing their makeup' and some lip syncing shots. We then went outside onto the street and shot a catwalk and footage of the girls walking towards the camera and dancing. We shot the younger girls performing a catwalk, so made sure we got shots of the older girls doing this as well, as we thought we could experiment with the two shots fading together. After we shot on the street, the girls got changed into their performance outfit, and we went to Addingham skate park to shoot the choreography and other performance footage.
   The skate park was a good location as there was no one else around so we had the area to ourselves, and it created the urban feel that we were after. Poppy, Jess and Abi all performed a dance routine together as they dance as a hobby so they could pick the dance up easier. We did get footage of all 5 girls dancing together as well.

The girls were professional when performing and we got the majority of the shots we needed. In the future, we may need to do another shoot to get some additional shots, however the shoot did go really well as the girls all did as we wanted and the performance footage was effective with the colourful dresses and dancing.

Lyrics and Background


Lyrics 
Boys call you sexy
And you don't care what they say
See, every time you turn around
They screaming your name
Boys call you sexy
And you don't care what they say
See, every time you turn around
They screaming your name
Now I've got a confession
When I was young I wanted attention
And I promised myself that I'd do anything
Anything at all for them to notice me
But I ain't complaining
We all wanna be famous
So go ahead and say what you wanna say
You don't know what it's like to be nameless
Want them to know what your name is
'Cause see when I was younger I would say
When I grow up, I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies
When I grow up, I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars, I wanna have groupies
When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
They used to tell me I was silly
Until I popped up on the TV
I always wanted to be a superstar
And knew that singing songs would get me this far
But I ain't complaining
We all wanna be famous
So go ahead and say what you wanna say
You don't know what it's like to be nameless
Want them to know what your name is
'Cause see, when I was younger I would say
When I grow up, I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies
When I grow up, I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars, I wanna have groupies
When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
I see them staring at me
Ooh I'm a trendsetter
Yes this is true 'cause what I do
No one can do it better
You can talk about me
'Cause I'm a hot topic
I see you watching me, watching me
And I know you want it
When I grow up, I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies
When I grow up, I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars, I wanna have groupies
When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
When I grow up, I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies
When I grow up, I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars, I wanna have groupies
When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene
When I step out on the scene
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
But be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it
'Cause you just might get it

MJ- Choreography Practice




On Thursday 28th,  Poppy showed and taught us the choreography for our music video. As it is fairly simple, we can also use some of the routine for our viral video idea.




PP- Creative arts Evening viral video


On creative arts evening we plan to get footage of a range of people of all ages to perform a small section of our simple choreography. We will then use this in our viral video persuading people to send us their version of the dance to get the opportunity to win to be in the next pussycat dolls video.
