FEEDBACK

Feedback/Points to improve:

When in the process of creating the animatic and adding different elements of sound to it, we attached a voice recording to a section of the animatic so that the audience have a better understanding of the narrative of the opening sequence. When creating the sound, to be specific the dialogue which is the conversation between the Police Officer and Mary Shaw. A teacher commented on how effective it was, and that it sounded realistic when it was being performed on the system. This allowed us to see that the opening sequence was becoming more successful, and by having that comment, and reflecting on to the work we thought that having the duologue has made it more effective and naturalistic which is the whole emotion and feeling we wanted to have within the opening sequence.

Another successful moment within the animatic that was effective, is that when looking at the animatic, someone called James Bariffe within the group pointed out that it was effective to have an upside down cross in the title of the opening sequence. As this made it look more professional like instead of being boring or dull, by incorporating this it gave it a sinister thriller look which is the main intention considering the genre is thriller.

Another piece of feedback, after being watched by a teacher is that she commented that the script needed to change so that it made more sense and was more effective as well as playing a huge part towards the narrative of the opening sequence. Previously within the script we had mentioned about the ring, but by having Miss Mitchells feedback this allowed us to have an understanding of what we needed to change and improve to make the opening sequence as successful as possible, as the ring is the most important piece of withheld information throughout and constructed within the opening sequence for a purpose- to keep the audience engaged and involved in the whole opening sequence.
