 What are the settings or locations of other films in my genre? Where and when are they often shot? 

A: Comedy films can be set almost anywhere, however the most typical setting for Comedy films is are places like suburban areas in places such as high schools and bars. The areas that they are set in are usually happy, sunny towns or neighborhoods. For example, “Superbad “its filmed in multiple areas first a high school then a liquor store in a neighborhood then also multiple party. Most comedy films are whenever there's not specific timing for comedy films is shot depends on the comedy for example horror/comedy are normalized to be filmed at night, and it can be filmed inside or outside. 

Who is the intended audience for my film? Why? What are their moviegoing habits? How will I get them to see my movie? 

A: The intended audience for my film are people that love comedy and love to laugh. The reason why I stated that is because my film is made to grab the audience's attention have something they can relate too and laugh because who doesn’t like to laugh. Audiences have a lot of moviegoing habits for example they laugh at the jokes that aren’t funny but doesn’t laugh at the jokes that are meant to be funny, and most of the time the stuff stated in the movie they can't relate too. I will get them to see my movie by doing stuff that’s different from every other movie for example scenarios. Past couple movies that have been released basically are the same thing with different characters, but the scenarios are the same and it results into the same outcome that’s why the film I'm going to create is going to keep the audience on its toes.
