5) How would you attract/address your audience?

We attracted the audience by our music the tempo instantly starts off fast and gets faster during our film opening especially during the main scenes this draws and attracts the audience. The music was seen as very important to us as it  represents setting the atmosphere, the music has a repetitive rhythm to it throughout the film. In the feedback we was told our music was too repetitive, as a group we decided we need to make some improvements on the must and to do so we need to spend more time on it there was also some faults at the end.  We first wanted to use peaky blinders as our music for our film as it linked extremely well with our film and the male character 'Jack the ripper' however we found it difficult to create on garage band so we decided to create our own music with the influence of peaky blinders tune, this song helped us pick what instruments were the most suitable for psychological horror films, french horns was a popular instrument used so we included it in our music which did create tension and an eerie atmosphere. The tempo and loudness of the sound increased as the main scenes operated which makes the audience want to watch the rest the film as the tempo builds suspense and mystery. 

Our titles and credits attracts the audience as it shows past newspapers of our jack the ripper character murders as backgrounds. These pictures link to our film and also draws the audience in. Our main title also draws our target audience in as it was unique and original, we decided to write our title out on the alleyway floor with blood to interest the audience. 

The costumes we used really did set the Victorian time period we tried to present, both the prostitute and Jack the ripper himself dressed in a way which we'd think we are in the Victorian era, these costumes attracts the audience as it makes them intrigued to how we was able to make a film set in a different time period just based on a few props and costumes. I believe we succeeded in that area. The prostitutes outfit attracts attention as it was such a bright colour. Because we didn't want to reveal Jack the rippers identity black was the best colour to use as it camouflaged with all his surroundings. The colour black creates a sense of mystification what applies well with his character as Jack the ripper identity has never been revealed! The top hat used showed how we researched the costumes needed for both characters best suited for the Victorian time period and Jack the ripper himself did use a top hat.


We posted our video on you tube and Facebook to get a range of audience feedback, most of the feedback was from ages 18 above which shows why we rated our film opening an 18. This helped us have knowledge of the positives and negatives opinions viewers had on our film so we can make improvements.Generally we recieved mostly positive feedback but we did receive a criticism which would help us develop our film to make it much better.
