Questions We Asked
What age are you?: We asked this to get a general idea of the person who we asked. By knowing their ask we can understand what they do in life like school and also what some of their thoughts we will already. Also we know by their age what type of people will come and watch the film and we will know the size of the age group we are speaking to. For example we asked this question to mainly teenagers so we can see that teenagers are interested in horror films.
What type of horror genre should be used in our trailer?: This gives us and idea of what genre people want to see in a horror. Even though we may have already picked what we wanted to do as a slasher we can see what the audience currently want to see in a horror. This will allow us to see if it will be hard to make people want to watch our movies with our sub-genre or not.
What horror aspect do you find the most scary?: We wanted to see what horror aspects that people found the most scary and if we could link it in with our opening title sequence. For example one of the ideas was jump scares and although we did not use any we did take it in to consideration and film some.
Do you prefer realistic or supernatural horror?: We wanted to see what people preferred out of realistic and supernatural. As we are using a isolated village area we wanted people to say realistic as then they will be more feared as it could happen to them.
Do you like it when the villain is unseen or obscure?: Most of the people liked it when the villain was unseen but we added parts of both. We made it so that theories were correct to achieve the biggest scares out of the audience. We wanted an isolated area, with a site of activity and a strong male killer.
What is your favourite horror creature?: We used horror creature question because we wanted to see what people preferred. Most people were stuck finding an answer which proved that they did not expect horror creatures. We added this question as we wanted to see if people liked horror creatures which it suggested in some of our secondary research like the Amazon page.
Do you like horror that is effect globally or in small areas?: We found that many people liked horror that was effected locally. This is because it may make them feel safer as it is not near them. Another reason could be that then they are able to learn the area and get attached with the people that live there.
What music do you prefer in horrors tense, non-tense or spooky?: The music we chose just to see if we should add a good soundtrack. Everyone we asked wanted music and most people though that tense music would be the best. This is good for us as we can now use the music to create tense within the trailer after we use the contrapuntal music at the start.
