Task 10: Audience Feedback on First Draft


Self Review on First Cut:
  • The title music doesn't fade quick enough.
  • There are issues with volume in some places.
  • One of the cuts is delayed and needs editing.
  • A few shots need to be reshot.
  • When showing on the projector, lighting is an issue (this is fine on the Mac screen).
  • Sound effects need to be added.
  • Narrative may not be clear because ending still needs to be filmed.
Questions for Audience Feedback:
  1. How does it fit the Thriller genre?
  2. What do you think is the narrative?
  3. What is your opinion on the colour correction?
  4. How does the soundtrack create a mood/atmosphere?
  5. What would be the audience for our short film in your opinion?
  6. Where would you expect our short film to be shown?
  7. What do you think of the pace of the film?
  8. What is your opinion of our aspect ratio of 16:9 to 2.39:1?
  9. What dialogue (if any) is needed to add to narrative?
  10. Can you suggest any issues with lighting?
