Audience Feedback

After viewing our opening scene, the audience said various good points and also things that could be changed or improved.

Positive comments:

• The reflexion of the villain in the computer has been mentioned a number of times by the audience, expressing that they thought this shot was effective and successful.  
• It was also said that the closing of the browser which lead to the name of the film appearing on screen was also a really successful shot and was a good end to the credits.
• A number of people said that it was clear what our story line was through the shots and scenes that we used, this was our main priority when filing so we are pleased that the audience picked this up easily.    
• Our use of the credits were commented on also, saying they looked really effective as they were actually being wrote on to the screen as the viewer is watching, which was said to be an interesting way to include the credits. 
• It as mentioned that the opening credits built tension.
• The first shot used (the extreme close up of the hand on the mouse) was said to be really effective.  

Negative comments:

• it was suggested that the credits could be speeded up a bit because they were a little slow and would come across better if they were quicker.
• One viewer said that we had used too many photos.
• It was said that the ending was too sudden and would be better if it was a little longer.
• It was suggested more than once that we could include more camera angles as all the ones we have used were quite similar or the same type of angle repeated.

We have noted all of the positive and negative comments made; the negative comments have helped us immensely allowing us to recognize and change or improve that areas that need it. We plan to cut out the shadow that was noticed by  one of the viewers, speed up the credits, cut down the amount of photos we have used, use some more shots to make the opening longer and more in depth and use a larger range of of camera angles.
