2. Whenaskedaboutwhat the genre of the ESting was,we receivedmixedanswersof confusion –asto what genre is
beingusedinthe ESting.We leftitas an openquestion,hopingtogeta close response tothe genre we hope tohave
come across withto the audience,whichwashorror.Most of our audience wrote ‘Idon’tknow’,whichcould’ve
beenavoided,if we have hadusedamultiple question.Inwhich,we wouldhave beenable togatheraquantitative
data.
We understoodwhythe audiencecouldfindthe genre confusingbecausethe only signof the horrortheme would
be the flyingpart,aswell asthe bloodsplatterwhichwasn’tred.However,we thoughtthatbyusinga purple blood
splat– itwould be consistenttothe E4 theme.If we could’ve putmore horrorconventionsinouranimation,the
audience would’ve probablyhave aclose guesstohorrorgenre.
