The shots made me feel like
I was spying on her because
each shot was of her. It
made me wonder what
makes her so important that
the shots focus on her so
much .
I liked how I knew as much
as I knew a little. I could
tell where the film was
set, it looked like a forest. I
could tell the girl goes to
work because of the suit she
was wearing but that's as
much as I knew. I didn't
know where she was
heading. Or if these shots of
the camera following her
meant anything,

To be honest I'm a fan of thrillers and I'm
used to seeing blood or screams in the movie
you know, things like that get me
uncomfortable but I like that feeling. The
uncomfort. I liked how u decided to be
different with your video like you made me
feel uncomfortable without using blood or
screams or heavy breathing like other
thrillers do. For me its the shots that
unsettled me fair enough the shots were
taking in hidden places, but its where the
shots were taken from. Like the one right
behind her chair, the one behind the bushes
the one under the erm the footpath. It made
me want to yell at her because she didn't
look back not even once and this guy this
creep is just following her and he gets so
close so her. And then and then when he’s
like directly below her he does nothing? You
think you know what's gonna happen next
and then you realise you don't .

When your watching it for the first
couple of seconds that's what it feels
like. Like your just watching it or her
you know its not clear until a minute
later that your following her and I
think the biggest clue was the close
up shots , the ones that were like
directly behind her like the person
was a step away. That's what gave it
away for me that she was being
followed.
Genre wise it could have included
more things because the idea I guess
was to show that someone's
following her and that's good but
thrillers are meant to be creepy.
Where's the heavy breathing? Or or
where's the footsteps of the stalker?
You know. Things like that makes it
better as a thriller and makes the
audience fear. But overall it was
entertaining to watch.

I liked it. I really liked it i liked how it wasn't too scary
or original. I personally hate the sight of blood but my
friends don't. But for me I felt like this movie or short
clip because it showed that you don't need to scare the
audience when making a thriller because the music oh
lord the music scared the jeepers out of me. Honestly it
starts off so calm and my first thought was ‘is this
country music’ and then all of a sudden it gets louder
like there's something evil about. But this girl I have no
idea what her name is, who she is or what not, all I
know is that this guy this stalker is obsessed with her.
He follows her around. And she is just walking around
calmly like she doesn't realise anything. I'm 15 you
know and I can relate to that. That happens to me
sometimes on my way home. I just hope she doesn't get
hurt. But that's the thing you know its a thriller, and the
music too its like its telling you she’s gonna get hurt.
But you don't know till you watch the rest so I hope you
finish this movie because I really wanna see if she gets
home safe. She is heading home right? Huh? Oh I don't
know where she's going I thought she could be going
through the forest as a short cut to get home because
that's what i do but I don't know.
