Part 6- How did you attract/ address your audience

Do you think you have reached your target audience?

I feel that we did reach our target audience. We used many techniques and characteristics that helped create horror films. This means ur film will have the same effect on it's audience that other successful horror films has had in the past.

What did you include when planning your production that you thought would appeal to your audience?

For our planning, we thought of a horror genre. This lead to a zombie film straight away. We blieved this to be a good idea as zombie films are always big hits in the box office. This gave us many ideas to chose from and with a load of zombie films to help research, we knew we could come up with a good idea for our story. We thought of, like many other films, to leave a cliff hanger. This would lead into more intrest for a sequal.

Using quotes from the audience feedback address how these did appeal and why?

The feedback that we got from the audience that watched the sequence was mainly good points.

Feedback Quotes:

'I want to know what happens next!'

'Good sound'

'Good selective shots'

'Good narrative and typography'

What this tells us, is that our film did appeal to the audience. I believe it went well beacuse we did not give too mush away. We left the audience guessing and leaving them to want to know more. As we had good feedback, we did not have to improve our films that much.

Overall what else has been successful in your production according to audience feed back?

What was successful was the way we all worked together. We all picthed in, this leading to good response from the audience. We all helped in one department or the other, that's why our sequence worked out really well. This is why i believe that the audience the opening sequnce.

What was least successful?

Our main problem in our sequence was the fact it looked like a trailer more than a film. But help from teachers and audience feedback, we were able to fix this problem. After removing the text that caused this, our sequence became more a film, than a trailer.

How could the work be imroved?

If we were to imrove anything, it would be to maybe show a zombie. This gives the audience something to be scared of. Though when looking back at the sequence, not much would need to be imroved.
