Evaluation- Part Six

Part Six- How did you attract your audience?
I think that our title sequence has definitely reached it's target audience. As from the planning stages we wanted to have a male mass audience. All of the boys that gave audience feedback enjoyed the title sequence. I think our title sequence has exceeded within its target audience. Within the planning stages we expected girls to be uninterested, yet they found it enjoyable as well. They also reach their sociographics of D-E category people and all of whom were students. This exceeds all of my expectations making me conclude that we have reached our target audience.

I wanted to appeal to our audience by involving elements they would enjoy such as cars. I planned to do this by showing a busy city, full of speeding cars. Yet we were able to find a broken down racing car. That the audience would find interesting. I also thought that jump cuts would appeal to their thrill seeking personalities. I planned the money and drug scene, this appeals to them as it connotes real danger.

One of the audience members said that the broken down race car reminded them of their cousin's car. "Yeah I think it's good:) looks like my cousins car made the final cut as well, really good though :) well done." A lot of people enjoyed the editing effects and someone mentioned how they worked well within the drug transaction. "Well good, the camera bit at the end is awesome when Si Hin is doing the transaction".

A lot of the audience enjoyed the editing, in particular the flashing effect and the screen turning black and white when the drug transaction is going on. The audience also enjoyed our music, saying that it fit well and that it reminded them of video games and other Chinese music. This is good as they believed the music, they felt that the title sequence was set in China due to it.

Some of the audience did not understand why the title sequence was called "Closure". One of the audience said their was a point within the music were it jolted. "Great editing, the music jumps at one bit maybe could sort that out cause it nocked me off cause I noticed. But yeah it's good. Well done". Also another audience member thought that the title entitled "Jack Hill as The Dealer" was wrong. As they felt that giving the characters name was for the end of the film. "The way you've put so and so's name as the drug dealer, i personally feel that stuff is more suited for the end. But thats all." 

I think that we could have changed the dialogue in the beginning scene with our investigator. To mention that he is re-opening this case for some emotional closure within his life. Or perhaps show him opening and closing the file on his desk. These could hopefully make audiences understand the title "Closure". We could look through the music again and remove the part where the music jolts, so it flows much more smoothly.
