No. Of
People
Here, I have asked my
demographic target audience to
fill out the questionnaire in order
to produce valid feedback.

3. Question Two
Gender
Male
Female
I chose to ask 50% of
females and 50% of
males to fill out the
questionnaire so I could
get a variety of opinions
from both genders
equally.

4. Question Three
‘What do you like about the animatic?’.
 ‘I like the digital sound effects, I think it relates it
more to social media’.
 I like the countdown from 5-1 as it adds tension’.
 ‘Some of the shots, like the close eye shot I liked
because it related technology to human beings
which are complete opposites’.
 ‘I loved the intertitles and the billing block. I
thought it looked professional’.

5. Question Four
Were you able to follow
the storyline?
Yes
Some
parts
No
Here I was able to see that only
half of people were able to fully
understand the storyline of the
animatic. In a way, I see this as
a good thing as I didn’t want to
give too much away in the
animatic, so that the audience
were kept wanting more.
But, in other ways, I see this as
something to improve, as I do
want the audience to get the
gist of what the animatic is
about. For the film trailer, I am
going to make sure that the
audience fully understands what
the trailer is about, however,
they are kept in the dark as to
how the story ends etc.

6. Question Five
‘What did you think of the use of sounds for the
animatic?’.
 ‘I liked the use of the notification sounds,
however, they became annoying after a while’.
 ‘The beginning soundtrack went nicely with the
happy beginning’.
 ‘I think you should of included a consistent
soundtrack to reflect the bad moments’.

7. Question Six
Would you watch this
if it were a film?
Yes
No
Here we can see that the
majority of people would watch
it if it were a film. However, 10%
of people wouldn’t which means
I need to look closely at the
criticisms and work with my
target audience a lot more to
discover their ideal teen
drama/psychological thriller to
watch.

8. Question Seven
‘How could I improve for next time?’.
 ‘You could include shots to add more content and
more of a story’.
 ‘Add more sounds e.g. A tension building
soundtrack for the ending e.g. The shots with the
countdown etc’.
 ‘Make the storyline less predictable’.
 ‘Jumble up some of the shots to make it look less
like a short story and more like a trailer’.

9. Reflection
 By looking at the feedback, I have lots of advice
to work towards a better trailer. For the making of
the trailer, I am going to make sure I:
 Plan the shots carefully, making sure not too
much of the storyline is being leaked, but enough
for the audience to work out what the film is
about. This means going back to the storyboard
and altering the shots.
 I am also going to take into consideration the
soundtrack. I am going to make sure I chose my
soundtrack carefully, watching multiple trailers of
the same genre to give me more of an idea as to
what soundtrack suits different parts.
