Further Audience feedback
For further audience feedback, we asked the participants in the previoous feedback and others who had watched our thriller to write down a few words that summed up our thriller. Using these words, I made a wordle. This is shown below;
Audience Feedback
In order to be able to analyse just how effective our thriller was, if effective at all, we asked several people for their opinions. In order to gain a more in depth and detailed response, rather than anylising the reults in just one way, our group have decided to show them in a variety of ways.
We decided to ask three people of different ages to first watch our thriller opening to get a variety of answers, they were 17, 21 and 38 years of age. After showing them our thriller opening, we asked them to answer some questions for us. The results we got are shown below;
What did you enjoy the most about the thriller?
Female, 17
"I enjoyed the scene where the girl was walking, trying to get a signal and then running back. I liked this because the editing matched the pace of plot, and built up tension."
Male, 21
"I liked the shots of the stalker's eyes, as it made us realise that the stalker was following the girls, and getting closer and closer to them."
Female, 38
"I like the opening, as I could see what was happening with the stalker, whilst the girls were setting off. This made me understand that the two sets of characters were related, and hinted at them meeting at some point in the film."
How do you think we could have improved the opening?
Female, 17
"I would have liked to have seen more of the other two girls, rather than the main one. I didn't really get to know them that much, and then they disappeared."
Male, 21
"The stalker's weapon was a bit unrealistic. I don't see how he managed to attack the two girls with his bare hands and a small piece of rope."
Female, 38
"The section where the girls walk from the house to the camp site is slightly slow. Maybe it would have been better to quicken it a bit."
Would you watch the remainder of the film?
Female, 17
"Yes, I want to see if the main girl dies or not."
Male, 21
"Yes. I want to know who the stalker is, and what happened to the two girls that went missing."
Female, 38
"No. Unfortunately, I don't see how the story could develop and continue for an extra hour or so."
Looking over the responses of the participants it could be said that our thriller was quite successful. Although the eldest participant we asked didn't seem interested in the thriller and thought it was ineffective. However, we did expect this due to the thriller being aimed at a younger age group. We therefore thought she would be least likely to enjoy the thriller out of the three participants we asked.
