Humphrey Minott- Blog Post 5

There are many ways to remediate my genealogy of Zorro. I can either create a Zorro poster, or even make a video.  Initially, I began thinking of making a poster because I am visually inclined and I feel like I can connect a certain audience perfectly to that type of media. Then, I decided that I should do something with video instead, to even further the audiences’ connection to the media.

I would essentially target one of three audiences. The first audience alternative that I would target is children, specifically elementary school kids. An appropriate medium for those kids is video. I could recreate Zorro as a young child to allow the children to feel as if they experienced what the young Zorro experienced after watching my video. It will also be funny, or witty because it is meant for children.

My second audience alternative would be, specifically, teenage girls or Hopeless romantics. I would also create a video, but I would change my approach. In this instance, I would show the love life of Zorro, and how he would have to rescue the love of his life. This type of media would be great for this specific audience because it plays to their wants; they will fall deep within the movie, having a strong connection.

Lastly, my third audience would be, specifically, young/teen boys or action-seekers. In this case, I would turn the video that I create into an action film of Zorro. The film would be target to this audience because it will be full of action including the fights, the chases, and the escapes that Zorro goes through.
