Qualitative Audience response data to the new plot idea

Person 1

Person 2

Person 3

 

Describe how the plot makes you feel?

Person 1: The plot makes me feel intense and I feel like the final footage will make me feel very suspense.

Person 2: I really want to find out more, and find out who the girls were and why he targets these girls.

Person 3: I felt very engaged and the plot is very confusing, which is good because a thriller is meant to make the audience feel on edge.

How this affects my production: This means that as long as we carry out this idea and follow the plot when filming, then the audience will be engaged and want to find out more.
 

What could be changed to make this opening scene more effective?

Person 1: There should be more sinister and strange aspects, such as tying the girl up.

Person 2: Black and white would make the thriller opening look particularly eerie and distorted.

Person 3: Dramatic, classical music should be used to make the scene more intense to add tension.

 

How this affects my production: This affects my production because I will be able to include these aspects into my final footage, as there is always room for improvements.

 

Would you want to carry on watching the film to find out what happens next?

Person 1: Yes

Person 2: Yes

Person 3: Yes

 

How this affects my production: This shows that the plot is engaging, and so when we film we will have the confidence that the final footage will be engaging and of good quality.

 

Who would you expect the girl at his door to be, why is she there?

Person 1: A neighbour or someone from the local neighbourhood

Person 2: A girl who he could be tutoring, he could be a tutor of some sort!

Person 3: A girl doing a paper round who gets drawn in.

 

How this affects my production: These ideas can be considered as we still haven't decided how the girls get there. I think that the tutoring idea is good, but I will discuss this with the rest of my group.
 

What do you think the antagonist's occupation could be?

Person 1: The antagonist could tutor girls

Person 2: I think that he is a tutor

Person 3: I think his job isn't connected to the girls going missing.

 

How this affects my production: We couldn't decide as a group how the girls get there, and so this suggests that the tutor occupation is what our plot implies, therefore my group and I will discuss this further and possibly add it into the narrative and background information on the characters.
