Audience Feedback- Miss Georgiou

Audience Feedback 

Audience feedback is essential to carry out to see how successful our Thriller film is and if it appeals to out target audience of 15+. From the feedback we can also find out what exactly was successful and what we could improve on for future reference. We screened our production  to a classroom to our target audience of boys and girls of whom are 15+ where we received both some negative and positive feedback in which we shall take on board for if we next make a Thriller production. We then uploaded it to Youtube so we could get more feedback from a wider range of audiences and we also got different opinions from different ages.  This helped us out a lot so we know where we were successful and what points we should focus on more in the future. These are some of the feedback we got from the students in the class.

• "The transitions and effects used were effective as it informed me that a nightmare was taking place” – Jackie Jarvis
• “The use of low-key lighting is successful as it defines the thriller genre” – Drew Wyllie
• “I don't think the ending flowed well with the quality of the rest of the film” - Kai Tyler
• “There should of been a clear transition when it changed from the shot of the girls face to the nightmare” – Caroline Cheung

If I had an opportunity to do the production again I would make sure we followed the film schedule which we completed before we started to film, I would also like to be more involved in the editing process now that I have an idea of how to do so, finally as I know from the feedback I would use clearer transitions from different locations so the audience are clear its a different scene. I am pleased with the final outcome of our Thriller opening as I believe it includes the basic codes and generic conventions that a Thriller film should include to be a success.
