Q5) How did you attract/address your audience?
In the opening of my Thriller film, ‘Thief’, I have put in a high standard of mise-en-scene visuals, short camera shots and close-ups, together with an eerie soundtrack and a cliff-hanger ending in order to attract the audience.
I have sampled 8 students, aged 17 and 18, 2 females and 6 males. They were asked to rate the production on a number of aspects of the film and give an overall assessment. Their findings are shown in the following charts.
From the results of their questionnaires, everyone (that’s 100%) liked the camera work and editing of my film ‘Thief’. Such comments included ‘huge variety of shots’ and ‘nice close-ups of faces’. They all agreed the soundtrack to the film effectively enhanced the mood and action. However, some were confused by the sudden transition of day to night which, on reflection, could have been avoided by adding a title such as “Later that day…” appropriately. One participant found the characters (teenage hoodies) were stereotyped and would show teenagers in a bad light from the perspective of an older audience.
In conclusion, I received a favourable response to the film and am pleased the work perfected on camera angles/movement and editing techniques was highly appreciated.
