2. Genre
• Our finished film uses genre to hook the audience in a
variety of ways
• We can start by illustrating the fact that we convey some
sense of a generic horror movie, the idea that they came to
watch a horror movie and that we are showing them
specific convention of that will keep them hooked to
watching all of the movie.
• After receiving feedback we understand that genre
influenced the audience staying because when seeing a
teenage horror by showing the characters and the music
correspondingly with the title they immediately gather and
understand it is a horror movie and then after this they can
then easily follow it.
3. Narrative
• I believe the narrative kept the audience hooked for a
significant amount of reasons;
• Firstly we must consider that our opening and our feature
length film would not follow Syd Field’s Three Act Plot
Structure. As in our film we have taken away the generic
horror hero and left the audience to think, who is the hero?
This subsequently will keep the audience hooked.
• Secondly I believe after receiving audience feedback that our
narrative is believable an can easily be followed this allows
the audience to believe that the unfolding fiction is real. Also
our actors delivered dialogue and action in a believable
way, so as to persuade the audience that the film is real life.
4. Style
• Finally I believe the best techniques we used to portray our style were our
use of such as cinematography and sound.
• The style of our film was intended to appeal to our implied audience and
make the teenage audience feel as if they could especially relate to the
film.
• The general style expectations are used in our film such as the idea of a
close up when something serious has happened or the idea of the music
rapidly changing. However we also challenge some general styles in not
using the complete roulette of conventional methods when filming a
horror film, for example in showing the killer, eating slowly, to a rapid
change in seeing people getting ready for a party back again then to the
slow eerie music as the killer is eating his food before finding his real pray
