Video Interviews
From our feedback we learnt that the main positives of our trailer was the music and how well if fitted with what was happening in the trailer, it resembled the pace and how we want to portray the tension. On the other hand the choice of clothing may have let us down. As well as Alex mentions how he felt like one of the songs in the background didn't fit with the other background music.
All Asena, Alex and Kate really liked our poster, to the extent where they couldn't fault it. All 3 mentioned how they really like the colour scheme and how we made it look very cold and dark, as well as looking very professional. They also like the inclusion of the hand and how it's focused on and the use of the killer stood in the background out of focus with the weapon in his hand.
For our magazine they all liked the mysteriousness of it and how the killer is in it with his hood up and with his back to the camera looking in a different direction. They feel that it is again very professional and represents the trailer in the way where you cannot see the killer's face. However Kate feels that the magazine could have involved a better font for the text as she feels it looks boring.

Focus Groups (Year 9s - Ages 12-13)
From this focus group specifically we learnt that people of their age would not like our trailer as much as some others potentially would. This is why we did not aim our target audience for this age range or as low age as the people questioned in this focus group.
Focus Groups (Ages 15-25)
As you can see, from the second focus group our feedback was a lot more positive. The ages in this focus group is the ages we targeted our trailer at - ages 15-25. Even though there were still some criticisms, the feedback compared to the other focus group was a lot more positive, therefore meaning that this age group statistically would prefer like our film more than younger years.
This is the reason for which we targeted our trailer at this age group as they can either relate to the cast as they're young students and want to explore etc. Or they are young adults who used to be students and can relate to the cast in the way where it is what they used to do with their school friends when they were younger. This connection with the audience was overall, a success and made our trailer even more successful.

Social Media
As you can see, we shared our trailer onto social media sites like Facebook to see what feedback we could get from other users. From the pictures the feedback we received was all positive, as well as all of the people who commented fit into our target audience which suggests that we have targeted the right audience considering the different features we have included to meet our audience's demands. Both James and Matt liked how the shots were edited and transitioned together. James also mentioned how the trailer kept him on the edge of his seat. Also the number of likes in a short period of time highlights that the audience liked what they were watching, even though they didnt give us feedback, their 'like' was enough to make us realise that our audience appreciated what we have made.
