Positive Comments:
John aged 16 said "the cinematography has been used well and the lighting is very effective as it provided the correct idea as the audience should get in the thriller"
This comment has been very beneficial because it shows that my group and i have chosen to the cinematography in the storyboard was good to follow and the lighting ideas we have used in the scenes to create the different effects that the audience respond to.
Vicky aged 17 said "the locations that have been used from the scenes as it shows what the characters are doing and where they are, also some of the locations shows the isolation and can apprehend that there would be something bad would happen.
This is very beneficial as this shows that me and my group has successfully chosen a good conventional location for the scenes, that the audience would be able to respond to it and this is what the aim was.
Jim aged 19 said "throughout the thriller the sound is very good and conventional to the thriller as the soundtrack suits what you see on the screen and the sounds allows us as the what is happening and the sound builds up the tension and at the end the sound of the antagonist creeping up is very effective"
The comment that jim has said is very helpful as it showed that our groups soundtrack is good and is conventional to the thriller genre, also with him mentioning the end scene it shows that the soundtrack we have created for that as the audience has immediately has responded to it.
Constructive Comments:
Rikki said "that some of the video is out of focus and is a bit blurry"
This was good because it shows that we did not fully pay attention to the video being focused and this shows that the audience has picked up on little thing that could be improved and make the thriller much better.
Lauren said "That some of the acting in the thriller wasn't the best or that great in some of the scene"
This was a good comment because it shows that the actors didn't properly convince the audience that it was real, and this is something that could be much improved on, i think that this would impact the audience more if they could feel more for the character.
Chelly said "The antagonist in the thriller should be more scary with something that distorts his face"
This comment is very helpful because it allows us to improve the antagonist to be able to scare the audience more, if this could be improved the audience reaction to the end scare would be more effective as it could gain a stronger reaction.
Do you think you have followed your brief and created a successful thriller?
I think i have followed the brief as i have created a conventional thriller and the audience react to the thriller, but with the feedback being said there is something that could be improved but i do think it is a successful thriller because it still gains the same reaction expected from the group.
Conclusion
In conclusion the feedback is beneficial as the audience has helped us understand some of the flaws that we have in the thriller what this means is that there was somethings that would improve the thriller even more. The intended target audience was successful for the production company and film company as it gain the reaction that we expected, what this means is that the thriller was good from the audience and is conventional to the thriller.
