evaluation task 3 what we have learned from our audience feedback

From looking back through our audience feedback ive realised our strengths within this piece were our variety of shots through out the trailer especially the shot of our character reaching for the knife in his kitchen draw this was a shot leading up to a key moment in our film so by constantly flicking back to parts of this event in our trailer we felt that it would hilight this fact and by speeding it up and making the shots short it would make the audience focus more on this part.

Another thing pointed out about our trailer was our use of effect with the black and white screen our audience felt this conformed to the horror film stereo type wich was also the reason we chose this effect a similar black and white effect was used in Alfred Hitchcoks Phsyco. Our audience also found that our genre was easily identified with another strength being our music.

when creating our trailer we wanted the music to help tell the story we were producing and our film didnt allways start of with a phsyco on the loose so for the beggining of our trailer we chose a calm style of music produced by the sound of a guitar we thought this would be sutable for the begining of the trailer because it shows the begining of a harmless relationship the sound of the guitar sets of a peacefull setting. as our trailor moves on the music progresses to a more uneasy and louder sound this sound was chosen to represent our genre horror .

from this feedback i also realised our weakneses one being background noise through out some of our early shots in the begining of the trailer something that we could have eddited out when puting in the music. another was our choice of font for our screen titles and our main title for our film to make our trailer better we could have chosen a bolder font to make our title stand out and conform to the genre and other horror films. Finally the speed our some of our screen titles were a bit too fast wich made it hard for the audience to see the names our the actors in our trailer in future we could slow them down so that they are easier to be seen and also fit in with the music.
