Q2 evaluation
Our opening revolves around a 16-year-old male protagonist, Joe. While teenage boys are sometimes seen as troublesome, our narrative focuses on Joe's recovery from a struggle instead of highlighting typical social difficulties for his age and gender. The film represents Joe as mentally unstable and ill through techniques like a hospital gown, medical props, tense shots, and facial expressions to suggest breakdown. A voiceover from Joe's worried mother is used midway to develop their relationship and immerse the audience, while an earlier police radio voiceover implies danger to establish realism.

Evaluation q5
The document discusses how the filmmakers addressed their target audience of ages 15 and over in the opening scene of their thriller.

They also used scary imagery and sounds like eerie silence, suspenseful music, and a children's nursery rhyme sung by the killer to attract an older audience. The abrupt change from a safe bedroom setting to a dark, deserted woods helped create tension.

Evaluation
Hannah lives in a cursed house where previous residents have been possessed by a spirit after finding a music box. The plot follows conventional supernatural horror tropes. Hannah is possessed by the spirit and kills herself. Representations of gender in the piece are both progressive and regressive - the ghost challenges gender norms as a powerful female villain, but Hannah is portrayed as weak and vulnerable. Through filming and editing techniques like close-ups, darkened eyes, and foley sound effects, the piece aims to represent Hannah as a weak character who is easily possessed.

Question 5
- 1. How did you attract/address your audience?QUESTION 5
- 2. SURVEY Name and Age What would you like to see in a Horror/Thriller film? Lucy Scanlon - 16 years old Suspense, scary music, dark lighting and a scary/evil character. Susan Braggins- 45 years old Dark lighting, danger, loud music, a scary location and ‘jumpy moments’. Emily Braggins -24 years old An evil person, a plot twist, music that builds suspense and maybe set in an old house. Charlotte Underwood- 12 years old An old house, an evil character and good character. Lauren Dear- 16 years old A scary character, an innocent character/victim, maybe violence and antique props like dolls. To ensure we would capture footage that would appeal to our target audience, we also carried out a survey and handed it round to people ages 12 and above, which asked what they would want to see in a Horror/Thriller film. Here is a typed up copy of our survey and the results.
- 3. In response to our survey, we added lots of the suggestions into our movie. 1. Our movie was set at night time and filmed with ambient light, which wasn’t bright and it made our film look eerie and sinister which is what we wanted. 2. We added an evil character in, who was essentially following the Protagonist up until the end of the film opening. 3. We added a soundtrack and made sure it was at a loud volume to build up suspense and make the few seconds where the Antagonist is revealed stand out, because we cut the music off at that point. 4. We added a plot twist, which was that the person following the Protagonist was in fact the Protagonist herself, but presented in an evil way/her evil side which could be a side effect of her insomnia (hallucinating/split personality). 5. We used antique props, such as old-fashioned candle holders and small creepy dolls made out of china-one was shown briefly at the beginning. 6. We set the opening in an old-fashioned house.
