Trailer feedback

Not only did I get Feedback on my poster and magazine , I used the same method to get some feedback from social media. I went back to the group chat once the product was made and sent them a link with some basic questions about the product.

 

After this I got some responses from participants here is a collection  of some of the responses.

 

 

From this I can see that the product I have made is successful , people get the "uneasy" feel setting it away from the scary side which is associated more with horror films. Meaning its more likely to come across as a thriller. There is feedback on things I picked style wise like a lack of a narration which I think works with the trailer but as of the feedback I think next time I would try and make a copy with some narration just to make sure that it wouldn't be better, I wouldn't know because I didn't try it so that feedback has made me realise that I need to test things and meet dead ends just to guarantee it wouldn't make the best product.

 

Other things I learned was that the issue of dialogue and speech was raised. I agree as I watch back over it there lacked conversation ( although this helps set a mysterious tone) some people saw this as lacking context and information to the trailer and I understand and take that into consideration. Also the sound was not a loud or was too loud in some places and I would look more into focusing on sound because when I first started editing I mainly looked at lighting and transitions and not sound so I would make sure I spend enough time on this and work it better into my editing time schedule.
