What have you learned from your audience feedback?

Audience Feedback

-I liked the different camera angles and sepia to portray the anxiety of the flashback juxtaposed to suspense of the present.The trailer gives a good portrayal of a fantastic movie to come.The narrative was a bit faulty however this can be improved immediatly with some strong backing musicThe blocking of the final scene gave a dramatic sense of hierachy whilst at the same time focusing the audiences attention into the suspending dialogue
-Great teaser - nice effect of sepia in the opening shot, and clever idea to use a dentists chair; it makes you feel really uneasy - not a nice place to be! Definitely want to see what happens next! P.S. If this trailer is a work in progress, I think some kind of background music would enhance the suspense.
-A great trailer with just the right amount of intrigue to draw you into the storyline without giving too much away. I like the use of sepia to depict the flashback  both for its subtle contrast with the black and white of the present as well as the sense of foreboding it instils in the viewer. The narrative is well-written but a bit jumpy, a smoother delivery might create a greater sense of fear. That said, the final image of the helpless victim builds the suspense and makes me want to see more
-A trailer that made me want to know how they would meet their fate! The opening filmwork in sepia conveyed well that it was historical and the narration gave just enough plot away. This was very well supported with the taster of how one was to meet death in the dentist's chair. What will happen to the rest? I will have to go and see it - exactly the mission of any trailer
-its really good! the handheld camera at the beginning adds realism to the trailer and makes the audience feel involved also the lack of soundtrack creates an on edge feel as we do not know what will happen next. The dialogue gives away genre and narrative indicators but still leaves unanswered questions - enigma!!!!I really liked the different coloured shots at the beginning - shows that it is not in the same time frame as the rest of the trailer, a flash back?

I have learn't from my audience feedback that the a backtrack could help the teaser trailer as many have commented on the lack of one, however i still stick by not using a backing track as it gives a new convention to my teaser trailer. I have also lean't that the i have used all the aspects of editing quite well and that the teaser trailer is good. Also i have learn't that the narrative of the teaser trailer could do with so work to make it flow better than it does now. Overall the audience feedback has give me alot to think about and change but also showed good aspects of the teaser trailer.
