Audience Response

The vast majority of the audience that viewed our opening sequence all said that most of our sequence did connote that of a horror film. For example a classic shot of moving the camera slighlty to the right to see the evil character, that had not appeared in the last shot and no evidence that anyone was there, they came from no where making it frightening and making the audience jump. Another aspect that the audeince liked was the shot reverse shot of the evil charcter stabbing the good charcter, just as she lunges to attack, the camera goes staright to the close up shot of the male character being stabbed. The next shot afterwards was another point that the audience commented greatly on, just after the male character had been stabbed he went as if to fall down to the floor, the match on action changed so the audience could see it through the male characters eyes. Most of the audience said this was a good piece of editing and it seemed very natural and it felt like they were the ones who were falling.
