Focus group

We gathered a group of people from our 6form to sit and watch our film so far and to give us feeback on particular parts that they thought worked well and the parts of the film that they didn't particularly like and thought that we could improve. Here are their thoughts.

Stephanie Woodberry, 18
Good points: She thought that the music was quite eerie and that it worked well.
She also felt that it was jumpy and that added to the mystery affect.

Bad points: She felt that when Nusrat and I are talking it's too sudden between that clip and the next shot.
She also felt that the trailer itself was quite short and very confusing and that to improve that we could use some narration to guide the audience.

Liam Mulkerrins: 17
Good points: He particularly liked the panoramic view and thought that worked well. He also liked the zoom effect that we had sometimes.

Bad points: He thought that we could make the clips darker and maybe add some effects to it.
He also thought that we should have less echoing noises and that the audio of us speaking should be louder.

Nikki Robinson: 18
Good points: She really liked the make up and costume of the character and the scream at the end of the trailer.
Bad points: She also felt that the trailer had too many cuts and it was too fast in between.

Kayleigh Wood: 18
Good points: She liked the music and thought that it was innocent yet connoted an eeriness and also really liked the newspaper clipping and thought it made it all the more realistic. She also found the way in which Zuzie moved really interesting and very uneasy.
Bad points: Unlike others she felt that the music should stand out more at the end to draw the audience in and hype it up. Like Liam she felt that the trailer should be darker and have an effect. An improvement she had suggested is that we should make the newspaper clipping longer.
