Audience feedback of second draft edit

Audience feedback of second draft edit

I have created a second questionnaire in order to obtain information on how our second opening thriller sequence appears to our audience. This way, we can make final changes based on audience research and our own personal judgement to improve the quality of our opening thriller, so that it is of a very high standard when we upload the final version.
Person 1
Person 2

Person 3


Did you still find the opening thriller sequence engaging?

Person 1: Yes, the music was intense and the flashbacks really added to the tension. It wasn't just one long scene, I really liked the different elements. It made it very fast paced.
Person 2:  Yes, I do find it engaging because I was wondering what was going to happen next. The music gave it an eerie feel.
Person 3: Yes because it is full of suspense.
How this affects our production:  This means that we don't have to re-film any parts of our opening thriller sequence to make it more suspense. This means my group and I can continue to edit and pick out smaller parts which may need perfecting.

Do you think the editing includes smooth transitions?

Person 1: Yes, the scenes flow nicely into one another. The editing has been executed professionally.
Person 2:  Yes, however there are one or two transitions where the edit hasn't been cut properly, but it is nothing major.
Person 3: Yes, the editing is really good.
How this affects our production:  This means that we still need to perfect some of our transitions where the scenes haven't been cut as well as they could be. This won't take very long and is easy to fix.

Do you think the titles are positioned well on the screen?

Person 1: Yes, because they don't detract away from the storyline or images.
Person 2:  No, because they are in the corner so you might miss them.
Person 3: Yes I do because they are all the same and consistently in similar places.
How this affects our production:  I personally think that the titles are positioned well on the screen. We don't want the titles to distract away from the action in the background.

Does the music fit the narrative?

Person 1: Yes definitely, I think this is a real strong point.
Person 2:  Yes, it is very haunting.
Person 3:  Yes because it is full of suspense.
How this affects our production:  This means that the music we chose is suitable and adds to the suspense and tension, and doesn't need to be changed.

Are there any parts we should re-film?

Person 1: The establishing shot of the house and the doorbell.
Person 2:  The house at the begging and the doorbell. All the other scenes are of a really good standard.
Person 3: The panning shot of the house at the beginning of the opening sequence.
How this affects our production:  These scenes are scenes that we have arranged to re-film. This will be done in the next few days.

Do you like the flashbacks and do you think they should be improved?

Person 1: I love the flashbacks, and I don't think they should be improved.
Person 2:  Yes, I don't think there is any need for improvement.
Person 3: I do like the flashbacks because it gives an insight into the characters background, making you wonder what is going to happen next.
How this affects our production:  The flashbacks therefore need to be reviewed but not changed dramatically.
