(Reflection) Assignment 24: Reflection on Audience Research

We learn that collectively, people look for suspense and tension within the horror genre. They look for the unconventional types of films which are not reproduced often and copied - generic films are made commonly which can bore the viewer. This gave us an insight to the expectations of viewers and how they like the idea of originality. The viewer expects realism, gore and not generic cliches to create unforgettable characters and a great storyline and not a reproduced film where the environment gives a very similar experience.

(Research) Assignment 23: Audience Research - Online Surveys

We carried out online surveys to evaluate what people look for in horror films and their expectations in this genre.

[Planning] Assignment 25 - Blood Workshop

Blood Workshop

For our opening title sequence we may choose to use fake blood to give the effect of a character bleeding and we did a workshop to see how we can make different types of blood for our OTS.
 We looked at different ingredients like cocoa powder, washing up liquid, Ketchup and Golden syrup. however to make them red, we have to use a red food dye to make it he shade of red we so desire. we also use the ingredients to get different types of consistency.
