We decided to show our clip to who we feel would be our target audience, we showed the clip to 15 people, ages ranging from 16 - 22, all ages within our target audience. Our clip received mixed feedback from the viewers. Some said the clip was 'realistic and actually believable' and we kept to the conventions of a thriller. It appealed to them and they felt the suspension that we built up through the clip kept it interesting and exciting.
Whilst others commented on the fact the clip had no dialogue, and they found they got a bit confused. They also said the murdered victim didnt look as realistic as possible and gave the clip away a bit.
However, we felt the clip as a whole though was a success, out of the 15 people we showed it to, 12 said they would go and see that film in the cinema whilst 13 out of the 15 said they would more than likely purchase the film on DVD at a later date.
The audience said they liked our choice of actress for our murder victim, they said she played the part well and fitted the role of the vulnerable 'damsel in distress'. They commented on the murderers costume and added that it was very well chosen, they felt the black was very suitable and that it was very similar to other thrillers in that sense. Another thing our audience brought up was our variety of shots, they agreed that each shot had a different effect and they fitted in well with the genre.
We were also told that although the clip was good, it seemed fairly bright in the clip and this is unlike most other thrillers, this is true but we also had no choice and had to film on the bright days to get the filming done.
Our thriller and our Preliminary task is on a hard disc and will be available for moderation.
