2. Do you think you have reached your target
audience?
We decided our film should be aimed at a
audience of 15+ for both males and females.
This was proven to be correct as in the
audience feedback we got the response of
10 out of 12 people thought this was the
most appropriate age therefore we stuck to
that age.
3. What did you include when planning your
production that you thought would appeal to
your audience?
As the target audience is for
teenagers we decided to make the
main character a teenager with
psychological problems so that the
audience felt they could relate. We
asked them via questionnaire what
they thought she should look like.
We took this into consideration
when getting together the props and
came up with Lucinda’s look.
4. What has been successful in your production?
Location: In the responses of where the
opening scene should take place, most people
said ‘mental hospital’. We feel we have been
successful in the location of the film as we
were able to achieve an hospital room look.
5. More success - genre
I feel we conveyed the genre of the film very well as when
asking the audience what they felt the genre was, the
majority said ‘psychological thriller’ or ‘thriller.’ We may
have done this by the ideology of props we used and the
type of characters we used that would be seen in a typical
psychological thriller.
6. What was less successful?
When asking the audience how they felt we could improve the film, they
suggest ideas such as ‘stereotypical main character’ and ‘less of the plot
given away in the opening scene.’ Improvement - This makes us feel we
should have made the main character a little different to what they would
typically expect in a psychological thriller genre and to have changed the
script to give less away about what happens in the film in the first 2
minutes.
