We showed our finished thriller to some friends and people we knew to get feedback on our thriller this feedback was helpful to us to see how well that we produced it.
At the start of the thriller a lot of people said they like how we started of slow instead of rushing into the drama they said this helped build more tension and made the ending look more realistic. They also said the point of view of the bad guy in the hoodie was a really good shot to show how he was watching me and Sarah however everyone that watched this did say that the bit were me and Sarah was talking about make up its noticeable that i look at the character loosing character making it not looking very realistic. They also said that the set we chose was really good due to the country park being a very quiet place that gives of tension because its common to see this set in scenes in movies were people are being followed. This was good feedback as thrillers are meant to have a lot of suspense and it was seen that we done this.
The people who watched the screening of our thriller also explained how the cliff - hanger at the end of our title sequence was very creative and made them want to be able to watch the rest to see what would happen. They said this was seen at the close up of the photo of the girls in the picture and explained that this was really affective. They also said that this bit had their full attention and that it was a really good way to end it. This was really good as they was eager to know more about who them girls are and why does this guy want to kill them this is another thing that is seen in good thrillers mystery and it come across that we showed this affectively and showed us we done a good job.
They also said that it was always interesting they never lost interest in watching it and that they was fully engaged in it this is because the suspense and mystery made them curious they said even though it was dramatic it wasn't to other the top to the fact it looked stupid and due to this made it more realistic they said that the story line was really good to show in just the opening sequence as they had a strong understanding to what was happening however still left them with unanswered questions they said it was very well edited and due to this helped them to concentrate on it and to know what was happening.
We did get a lot of positive feedback however there still was some negative feedback this was seen in the acting of the people in the thriller we can not change this as it would mean re filming the whole thing or certain scenes and would take to much time. The acting at the beginning of the opening was seen as rather comical by the audience and they laughed a few times due to this for example when Chloe fell over it looked rather stupid as it was meant to look dramatic however came across as rather funny in the way she fell didn't look very realistic another example is when chloe was running as she runs funny and made it again look more comical then dramatic. Another bit of negative feedback people said was the sound if the knife stabbing Chloe as it sounded a bit stupid and far fetched however we tried to find a good enough sound with this and that seemed to be the best one we could find.
Overall the audience feedback wasn't as bad as it could have been and we are proud that we did get so much positive feedback they commented on how good the sounds went with the footage and how the editing looked really good and believable although there was some down sides and idea's they gave us for scenes which would have made it look really good however we are really happy with how this turned out and the audience thought so too. The audience feedback helped us see were we can improve for future filming and made us feel more confident on how it turned out.
