Four

2. Section A
Here is the link for our rough cut evaluation screening-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXo2--wZGG8 .. We got mixed feedback both
positive and negative. Some of the positives included; music works well, the
intertitles are good and effective, good variety of setting/locations, gore/body
horror was done well, good storyline, good use of angles, shot flowed nicely and,
nice lighting in scenes. Whereas some of the negatives where; slow paced, night
club scene needs improving, music doesn’t fit the film, narrative needs to be
more obvious, needs to be more scary and tense, jump scare is needed, and too
long. I think that both the positives and negatives were fair, I agreed with most
of the positives. From the negatives I agree that the night club scene needed
more work with lighting and music, I also agreed that the narrative needed to be
clearer. These are all easy changes to make through editing the lighting and
music and also adding a few more intertitles. I didn’t agree with the negative
about the music, out horror has a in depth backstory which goes with the mood
of the music. We were trying to show Francesca feelings through the music as
the film in from her point of view. The average score was 6.9 which I think was
fair and easy to get higher via the improvement made from the negatives.

3. Section B
After the rough cut evaluation screening we made a few changes, the
main one was changing the lighting and music in the night club scene.
We did this by adjusting the lighting and adding a slightly blue filter
over the top and then adding in the extra music. This helped a lot as
it made the scenes flow together better. We also added a scene and
changed the order of a few so that the narrative made more sense,
we also added in a couple of extra intertitles to help with the
narrative. I think these adjustments helped make the trailers
narrative clearer and easier to follow. The changes helped as our
score went up to a 7.8 which is a lot better than the first screening.
Some of the main positives we got back from the second screening
was that our trailer had tension and suspense, also that the music
went well with the narrative of the trailer.

4. Section C
Overall I am happy with our final cut of our trailer, I think that we
have made a trailer which will appeal to our target audience. The
story line is strong and different to most horror films, we also have a
different final girl who is blonde but she is also the serial killer. This
is not often seen, only 2 well know horrors have done this before.
Our trailer is similar to the trailer for I Spit on Your Grave, which is
a film based around a women seeking revenge-
