Deadline Opening Sequence Evaluation - Part 6 How Did You Attract/Address Your Audience?

Do You Think You have Reached Your Target Audience?

Yes i think we have reached our target audience because we have used many characteristics and features that other horror movies have that are also aimed at the same target audience as ours.

What Did You Include When Planning Your Production That You Thought Would Appeal To Your Audience?

When as a group we decided that we was going to do a horror sequence we planned that we would create a zombie film because zombie films are the most common feature for a horror film and from recent zombie horror movies that have been released practically all of them were a huge hit at the box office making a big profit. The other thing we decided on that would appeal to our audience was that the sequence would have a cliff hanger in it so it makes the audience question what is going to happen next in the movie.

Using Quotes From The Audience Feedback Address How These Did Appeal And Why?

The feedback that we got from the audience that watched the sequence was mainly good points.

Feedback Quotes:

'I want to know what happens next!'

'Good sound'

'Good selective shots'

'Good narrative and typography'

From the feedback that we got we could tell that the sequence was a good success and that there was not much work that needed to be done to improve it.

Overall What Else Has Been Successful In Your Production According To Audience Feedback?

Overall in our production that we done the successfulness was achieved by the effort that each group member put into making the sequence what it is. The feedback that we got back was from the viewing audience was mainly saying that the sequence had good sound, narrative, shot selection, typography and they wanted to know what would happen next in the film.

What Was Less Successful?

The main thing that people said was less successful about the title sequence was that it looked a little like a trailer than an opening sequence, but the problem was because of some of the clips of text which have been changed so the sequence does not look like a trailer.

How Could The Work Be improved?

From the sequence the only thing that I think could be improved would have been that we added a zombie so the audience would have been struck be a bigger fear of a scary figure on the screen.
