EVALUATION - What have you learnt from your audience feedback?

CLOSED QUESTIONNAIRE

OPEN QUESTIONNAIRE

EVALUATION - How affective is the combination of your main product and ancillary tasks?

One conscious choice that I made when creating my main construction and ancillary tasks was to not show too much of the main protagonist, the masked figure. I did this to create more suspense and make the audience when watching the trailer want to see the film more. Both the trailer and my ancillary tasks focus mainly on the lead female character, although my magazine cover shows the masked figure, I chose to use an effect to dull the picture down to see less of it and create a darkness about the character. Another reason why I chose to focus mainly on the young female character who is the 'victim' was to advertise the film to a younger audience and to make the audience sympathise with the character more. Overall I believe that my main construction and ancillary tasks go perfectly well together and complement each other well with both the aesthetics of them and the certain horror stereotypes they show.

Media Screening


To create awareness for the screening and to invite as many peers as possible, we created a Facebook event which created larger awareness and in turn made more people go.

Progress

Before Easter Half Term:
Ancilliary Tasks 100%
Filming/Construction 75%

Me, Reece and Sarah plan to mainly focus on filming over the 2 weeks Easter holiday therefore when we return afterwards our main construction will be completed and will be able to be shown infront of an audience to receive feedback

My other main focus over the holidays will be to upload more blog posts to improve my mark on Research and Planning.

I will post a percentage of how far along we are with our main construction during and after the holidays.
