Shortened Journey - A2 Media
This is the elliptical edit of our journey. This version has numerous shots cut out which shortens the overall time. This reflects how our film is going to be edited.
Full Journey - A2 Media
This is the full journey with no shots cut out. This was our first chance at using the new equipment and to further develop our editing skills on Adobe Premier Pro. The location of this journey was at our college.

Video Questionnaire-Analysis of results.
Video Questionnaire Analysis
From our video questionnaire we found that our target
audience, teenagers/young adults, prefer to watch thriller films rather than
horror, comedy, Drama, or action films. Our short film, 7 Minutes supports this
research as our genre is thriller.
Our target audience also tend to watch films at home rather
than the cinema. The proliferation of the internet and online devices has
produced sites such as Netflix and Amazon Instant Video which allow audiences
to watch films within the comfort of their own home which makes viewing films
cheaper and more convenient.
When we asked our audience where they would expect to see our
film the majority of people voted for the cinema with the other people voting
for online and TV. This shows that the cinema is still the major platform for
distributing and watching new films.
Our audience, when asked what genre they would give our film,
voted mainly for a thriller. The other two votes were for drama and horror.
This shows that when reading the story line of our film the generalised tone of
the film is more likely suited to the thriller genre. This proves that our
film, as intended, will follow the thriller genre.
All of our audience said that they fully understood the storyline
meaning that our film is not too hard to follow, this is beneficial for us as
more people will enjoy the film if they can understand it. It also shows we
have planned and structured our storyline well.
Our audience suggested the target audience of our film was
either teenagers or 12-15 year olds. This highlights we have planned our
storyline accurately to suit our intended target audience. However, our
audience would give our film an age certificate of 15. Therefore, we will have
to review the amount of violence, expletive language and other illegal
activities in order to make sure our film fits the age certificate of a 12 or
12a.
The audience gave very mixed opinions on where an ideal
location would be to shoot our film. This means it will be easier for us to
choose a location as it would be successfully filmed in a range of place. The
majority vote by the audience was a hospital. This location fits with the genre
of our film, thriller therefore further emphasises we have accurately matched
our film with our genre.
The majority of the audience could not think of any
suggestions to further improve our film. However, one point that was made is to
add more action between the 3rd and 6th minute. We will
review our film and try and add more scenes within this timeframe to ensure the
audience enjoy and understand the film.
None of the audience could think of any films that were
similar. This suggests our film is unique and would be successful as it’s
something the audience has never really watched before. We shared our pre film questionnaire to our twitter
page. Twitter is a social media app where people can follow anyone around the
world and see what they post. This will give us the opportunity to get a wide
range of responses for our questionnaire
