A2 Student Feedback

Once we had finished our final draft our our film opening, we asked A2 students to critic our openings and gives us feedback on what we could do to improve upon it. We got a varied response from the different students.

• One student said 'Overall it is good, however there are certain shots such as the one of the bedroom     door that could be improved'

• We were also told that our opening '[was] to fast, so to improve should try to slow down the pace of it, maybe by slowing down some shots, or not crop some as much' 

• Another student said 'The music could be changed. It doesn't really fit with the genre of the film and doesn't match the pace of the opening as the music is slower than the opening'

• A frequent comment that many students made was 'You need to add in white noise'

From this feedback we were able to understand how we could improve upon our opening before finishing our final product. Such as changing some of our shots and lengthening others to slow down the pace of our opening. By slowing down the pace our opening would fit into the genre of psychological thrillers better than in the draft.
