Thriller Development #15: Rough Edit Screening

Monday 3rd December

In Mondays lesson we exported our rough edits so far to premier to the rest of the class.

We designed a questionnaire that questioned each section of the marking citera. So then were are able to improve and make nesscary changes to our thriller to make it more conventional to the genre and any adaptions to our effects.

What we found...


POSITIVE:


SHOTS AND TRANSITIONS: All those asked said the shots were steady and there was a good variety of shot distances. The shot transistions were smooth in most places and worked well.

TITLES: When asked about the opinion on the titles, 1 person said very good (unique) and 7 people said is was good.

SOUNDTRACK: The majority said the sound track works well in setting a solem mood and along with the thriller content as it as a creepy atomsphere.


NEGATIVE:

SCENES: 3 people said the scenes should be darker lightning to set the mood. 1 person suggested more close ups.

NARRATIVE: 2 people couldn't follow or understand the narrative plot line and suggested there should be some sort of dialogue to explain it, (which we attend record and test).  

TITLES: 1 Person said the font doesn't work with the setting and mood as it is too gory even though it was intentional. I think it doesn't seem to fit because the narrative its clear enough.

TRANSISTIONS: A couple of people suggested that there should be more transistions between shot and the transisition between the wind sound effect and the music should be a lot smoother. We know it isn't smooth because it was a sudden Idea we thought of and didn't have time to sort out because we had t export it for the showing.
   
CONTINUITY: One person noticed the bus drivers were different in the bus shots, (as we filmed on different days). We are currently refilming it to get a better angle and have less of a continuity problem.
