Target Audience
It is probably a good idea to research the target audience of coming of age films. I used an article (link in sources) to help me find the audience. Like the subject matter, coming of age films have a target audience of teenagers 12-17, of no particular gender. This contains a majority of the Gen Z generation. They can relate with the matter more easily compared to adults. Teens are finding their identity that will stay with them for life, so the films can be something they latch on and relate to. Problems discussed can be personal problems that they face currently, like dealing with lots of homework. In my opening, I target older teenagers 15-17 because they can better relate with ideas like following your passion, even if it won't be guaranteed. I will have to put one or two teenager stereotypes in my film, like always being on their phones.
