Finished thriller

Screening for thriller vengeance



We let 20 people view our film so that we had a good amount of audience feedback.we asked them about the editing, sound and cinematography, to see if we did well at them. There was a lot of positive feedback however we did also get some negative criticism from the viewers.

The positive feedback we received was for the editing. the viewers liked how the beginning of the film was edited in the fast pace making it look like an actual flashback and then how it continued to the present from the past. they also liked the music which was playing at the background as it created more tension throughout the film creating the effect that something bad is going to happen. they mentioned how the scene where ben killed Stephanie looked really good as it seemed realistic.

The negative criticism we received was that there could have been more diegetic sounds, also the clips of the film were quite jumpy and there could have been fading in. this could have made the film look more smooth and well put together. They also said that the lighting in some of the clips of the film were a bit dark however it did have a good effect to the film.

Evaluation question 6

Question 6: what have you learned about the technologies from the process of constructing this product?


Equipment we used:

I learned how to use the equipment that was needed to film our thriller like the digital camcorda. i learned how to zoom in and out and how to film the thriller using the camcorda. we also used an tripod to keep our shots steady so that it didn't look unprofessional.

I also learned how to use  adobe photoshop pro cs6 in order to crop and rotate my storyboard pictures for my animatic.  I went on a website to create my indent which i used
in the beginning of my thriller. we edited our film using adobe premiere pro cs6 which helped us put our clips together, shorten down clips that wasn't needed. this is what we used to finish our thriller.


Internet sites:

I also used many internet sites in order to complete my thriller and create my evaluation questions for example i used youtube to post my thriller on and for my question 7 which was filmed on camera and then posted on youtube. i also learned how to embed a youtube video and how to put it onto my blogger.

we also used blogger to post everything we did on and  expanded my knowledge of websites that i can use to write about the audience feedback and other questions that was needed for my evaluation questions. For this i used sites like prezi, popplet and infogr.am to do our evaluation questions on.

we used dafont to create a font that best suited the title of the film and the genre of our film which was a thriller. We chose the font as a team and decided to go for a broken font theme as our title was vengeance and it was all about a broken friendship.
