My target audience
My target audience would be young adults because i have rated my film a 18, so would be unsuitable for children and people under the ages of 18. The young couple would shop in expensive shops because most young couples will not have children so can spend all there earnings on themselves, the male would shop in places like HMV and designer shops whereas the woman would shop in high street shops like Topshop. My film would interest them both because its a thriller. The music they would listen to would be the latest hits but would mainly listen to kiss 100 but it all depends on what kind of young couple they are, if the couple is gothic they would listen to head banging music. If the couple like my film they would also watch TV programs such as The Walking Dead, this TV series is all about zombies, this is similar to my film because the unknown creature could be a zombie.
Feedback
After i put my opening scene up onto my blog, this allowed members of my class and other people comment on my video. The comments showed me what was good about my video and what i could improve on.
I like the symbol of the candle at the beguinning and the creepy but gentle piano music in the background - creates alot of suspence and tension!
I also like the speaking / monolgue added in the background to explain a bit of the story and give a better idea of whats going on
the solarized effects are really good and create a very gloomy and creepy effect to the film!
I also like how the different shots are put/blended together to create a clear story-line
I'm glad aimee liked film, i didn't want the audience to feel lost so i'm happy she knew what was going on. I was aiming for the music to make the audience feel on edge and give off a scary vibe.
I like the use of music used, as i feel that this creates a really aery feel and works well to create tension. I also like the effect that the candle gives at the beginning, also helping to create a scary atmosphere. I think that the voiceover works well to tell the storyline and help the viewer to link together what's going on. I also like the effect of the negative imagery, this works well, adding to the tension of the music. I like the use of the loud gunshot at the end to finish of the story as this gives you an idea of what's happened without actually showing you.
The only criticism i can give is that i feel the gap between each person talking is too long and so maybe could be closer together to help it flow better.
However overall this is a nice piece, and the music and shots used have worked well together to create a scary atmosphere.

I relieved that Kirsten thought the music was aery and created tension as this is what i was aiming to do. The candle was meant to be a scary thing to make the viewer aware something was not right so i am glad most the people that commented, commented on that. I didn't know if the negative realise effect work but as Kirsten brought it up, it must of been successful, because some people didn't that the negative effect is what the 'Unknown' is seeing through there eyes. I agree with kirsten when she mentioned the big gaps between the speeches because people could forget what they just said or could get bored.
The voice over really helps the viewer relate to what's going on. The effects adds to the horror theme and i particularly like the candle shot. There is a different variety of shots and this shows off your framing skills. The use of music builds the tension throughout the opening.
one point i would make is that in the talking part the girl says i hope not when i think she is meant to say i hope so, like she is hoping to just be silly?
great job :)

Yvonne mentioned about the voice over, this was a last minute thing so I'm glad i did it now because all comment are complementing the use of the voice over. I'm happy that the audience likes the use of music as it took a while to find the right one! I do see where Yvonne is coming from but the victim friends says 'Oh i think your just being silly, you've got nothing to worry about' then the victim says 'mm, i hope not' meaning i hope i don't have anything to worry about. But, i know this because i made the video whereas the audience such as Yvonne noticed it didnt make sense, this must mean that quite a few people didnt, so in the future i will take more time with my script.
