This is the trailer to the film Age of Heroes, it is a war film that is skewed towards men aged 16-35 years old. This can be identified by the fast paced editing of action shots where things get blown up and people get shot. This film would appeal to a younger audience due to its similarity to the Playstation/X-Box game Call of Duty which is a first person shooter game. Younger males roughly between the ages of 16-25 tend to enjoy lots of action, fast paced films with lots of blood shed. Danny Dyer is one of the lead characters in the film and has starred in films such as The Football Factory, Dead Man Running & Doghouse which are all popular with a younger male audience due to there violent content.
The film would also appeal to the older male audience as it stars Sean Bean who is very recognisable to the older male generation, the fact that it is a war based film would also appeal to an older audience who may be interested by the historical virtues of the film.
At the end of the trailer there is an advertisement for army charities which is an example of synergy. The fact that this is a film about servicemen may attract an audience who are interested in the armed forces due to the positive connotations that the British army get for serving in Afghanistan.
This fast paced trailer includes strong and loud male dialogue and epic non-diegetic music which aims to attract the target audience.
