evaluation question 4

following secondary research in the initial stages of my project i found the audience for Friday the 13th were mostly male aged 15-24 and in the class category of C2 and DE. i then conducted primary research which suggested i should aim my film at the same target audience that Friday the 13th was aimed at. therefore the audience for my product will be male aged 15-24 and in the class category of C2 and DE.

Creating logos - part one

This is the first logo i made on photoshop for my production company 'Zoogar productions' i used a red blood splatter over my font so that you can tell that the genre of my film is a horror.
I then decided to add a dark background to make the red blood splatter stand out a lot more over the font.

Image Analysis



The first image is a close up shot showing the whole of the face and showing the detail of the face the face is made out to be quite scary, her face is white but her teeth and mouth are black making you notice the horrible look that she has, her eye line is in the center of the main power points. 

The second image is a medium shot of a women who looks to be quite scared it is edited so that she has blood all over her clothes the room is dark with only the light on her so that you know she is is the main piece of the shot her eye line is slightly above the upper power points. the shock on her face shows you that something has happened and that she is scared also the way she is sweating.

Peer assesment of storyboards

My story board has been assessed by two individuals, they came to the conclusion that the two good points of my story board was that it is relevant to the genre of film i am making and that there are a good range of different shots to help show the genre.
however they decided that there are two improvements that need to be made to my story board which is i need to change the font style and color to match the genre of film i am creating so a scarier style of font and a darker scarier color such as a dark red color, the also insisted that i need to create a relevant sound for my film so maybe a deep or hollow type of sound perhaps switching to a slightly higher pitch when there is more action.

Primary audience research

I conducted primary audience research in order to :
  • to find out what appeals to my target audience 
  • to discover any flaws or potential improvements 
  • to identify my gaps in the market and place a refreshing new twist on the genre
