STEPS TAKEN TOGET AUDIENCE FEEDBACK • Showed the rough cut to a varied audience • The audience vary in age, gender and ethnic background • Made a questionnaire for audience to fill out • Asked many questions about knowledge on Slasher movies, thoughts on rough cut, and favourite types of film genre etc. • Analysed what the audience feedback told us about the audience we should be aiming our movie too such as what ages prefer this genre and style of movie, which gender may be more interested etc. • We will also be asking simple questions in our tutor groups to get a large amount of answers such as: • How old were you when you first watched an 18 rated movie? • Do you still buy DVD’s/ Blueray? • Do you watch movies on your phone?

SUMMARY OF RESPONSES •Some oppositional reading: "Some parts were comedic...” • This shows us our verisimilitude is not good enough as our cut is not meant to be comedic • Santa on the screen was very effective (Some got the Jigsaw reference, Intertextuality) • Acting could be better, verisimilitude not achieved • Timing was a bit off • On average people rated it a 6/10 in likability • Everyone recommended we used eerie suspenseful music in the opening • Many recommended violins or piano with long suspenseful notes

- 9. CURRENT CUT REVIEW •Negatives: • We dislike the establishing shot and will change it to a more genre specific one. • We need to experiment with different titles • Improve false scare (doesn’t reflect convention well) • Stalking needs to be change and fixed • Add cross cut with final girl in garage • We need to shorten some cutes (clothing, going down to garage) • Maybe include an ellipsis • Positives: • Reflect the scream queen idea well • The man on the TV screen is very well done • Attempted to cover the stalking convention • Attempted false scare
