Our target audience for our horror movie was teenagers of both gender ranging from 18 to 21. We got feedback from other people by them watching our trailer in turn and giving feed back to our group. There is some videos i have posted to show you what some students thought of our trailer after watching it. When our whole class finished each of their trailers we presented them to everyone. During this presentation other students in our class gave us some focused feedback on our trailer. During the feed back we learnt that the most liked part of our trailer was the dictonary definitions that came up in a typewriter font. People said that this was unique and also made it feel creepy, which turned out to be a good horror convention. Also people liked the most was the fact we played on the binary opositions of the little girl that we used in the trailer, other people said that the shots we got of her were very effective in the way that they were disturbing in a very sureal way. Another popular like to the trailer was the amount of gore we captured. People said that it was a good amount shot, not too much but enough to understand the horror trailer conventions and to keep the audience on their toes. Also people said that it looked very really, and some interesting shots like a extreme close up on the gorey parts worked well althogether. Some other students said they liked how we used short, fast sequences and how we played on some reversed shots. Factors of the trailer that students weren't keen on or thought needed improving was the fact the story of the trailer wasn't too clear in the trailer, although a trailer isn't supposed to give away the full story of a film the audience needs to understand it to make them want to see it. Also people commented on the ending of the film, they said it was quite quick and anticlimatic, felt like there was more to come. The music we used in the trailer also wasn't a favourite to our student audience, people felt that it sounded unprofesshional and also some parts did come in late. Another factor of my groups trailer that people thought we had missed was a jumpy part, perhaps at the end of during the trailer.

This need some more work.first of all explain who your target audience is.then explain how you got your feed back. Next divide it into good and bad points about your product as an example of the horror genre, and then good and bad points about your product as a trailer. Use bullet points and try to illustrate your answer with screenshots that show what you are talking about.
