-After watching the film, we shared a questionnaire on social networking sites (such as facebook) that our audience could give us their feedback. Since all people who filled in the questionnaire we between the 15-18 age group (aka our target audience) we felt like we had achieved our desired goal by appealing to the audience since they all answered 'yes' when asked if they would watch our film in the cinema. We also received other positive feedback such as "I thought that it was really good" and when asked if they could suggest any improvements one person answered "it looks too good to improve".

-However, we did take note of some possible adjustments we could have made with the plot of the film when one person added that they "didn't see the relevance of the other girl following her around". If we were to be given the chance to re-write the plot of the film, we would add a back story to go with the girl mentioned to correct any confusion.

Since our target audience was teenagers aged 15-18 (due to the fact the rated age on our film was a 15 and the entirety of the cast were in this age range) we shared our film, questionnaire and any details of the film on social networking sites that are particularly popular with teenagers such as: YouTube, facebook and blogger. We chose these sites as it was an easy and quick way to distribute our product to our target audience as they were guaranteed to see it.

-We also conducted research into the BBFC website to create a knowledge and understanding of what rated 15 films contained and what content was forbidden from them (such as scenes of a sexual nature, drug use, etc). This helped us create an accurate portrayal of a rated 15 film.

'Sybil'

-A 70's psychological thriller, this time starring Sally Field playing a young women named Sybil who develops multiple personality disorder as a result of her traumatic childhood. Sybil's life is turned upside down as a breakdown sends her mental illness spiraling out of control until she becomes unable to carry out a 'normal' day to day life. She has a chance meeting with a therapist named 'Wilbur' who goes in pursue of the secrets that lie behind Sybil's abusive childhood in order to help Sybil. After taking the evidence back to her, she conducts a hypnotherapy session with Sybil and introduces her to her multiple personalities where she eventually befriends them. Sybil is then cured of her illness and goes on to lead a happy, normal life.

-We were inspired by the way in which Sybil's illness was presented in this film. She appeared frantic and very on edge as she experienced her delusions and this was shown through the various camera angles. We used this idea in our own film (aka the differ between close-up shots and medium shots) as we felt it created an uneasy atmosphere for the audience which is what we were wanting to achieve with the genre of our film.

Yes I do due to the fact that I conducted research into other popular thriller films so we knew what conventions would appeal to our audience such as:

'Shutter Island'

-A physiological thriller starring Leonardo DiCaprio playing a detective from america who travels- accompanied by his partner- to a high secure mental health institution on a secluded island in the middle of the ocean to investigate the disappearance of one of the patients there. After a roller coaster ride of events, the plot unravels to reveal the shocking reality to the audience that Leonardo's character has actually been a patient on the island for the entirety of the film and has in fact been taking part in a radical new experiment carried out by a doctor in which he allowed his character to carry out his fantasy of being a detective with the hope that it would cure his mental illness.

-We were inspired by the fast pace of the shots in this film and decided to use this style in our own film too as we felt it was a good way to build tension and gradually come to a climax (aka the close-up shot in our film where Tom turns to face Summer, his face covered in blood)
