Most of the feedback we received in these interviews was positive and constructive. Generally, they all seemed to agree that:
- the trailer fitted the conventions of a thriller, and is recognisable as a thriller
- the lighting, pace, editing and music build tension and grip the viewers' attention
- the layout of the magazine matches conventions/expectations of film magazines
- the incorporation of social media links and the magazine's own mobile phone app are modern and up-to-date, and allow readers get more involved with the magazine
Suggested areas for improvement are:
- the captions being moved closer together in time within the trailer
- the poster being more identifiable as a thriller - tended to make sense having seen the trailer, but looks like it could be for a horror film if the trailer hasn't been watched
Other feedback came from posting links to our trailer on Facebook:
