Our trailer's premiere - Questionnaire feedback
We handed out the questionnaire that I created, and these were some of the responses we got back.
I found this comment very valuable as it shows that the style of music that we were going for has paid off, and was in sync with the clips that come up on the screen.
This person also said that we could of improved on our text, taking this on board, we could have used visual effects on the text to make it seem less plain.
"Because it fitted in well with the clips"

"Because the sound fits with the scene, especially when the pace quickened"
This comment made also highlights how our music fitted in with the quick cutting scenes towards the climax of our trailer. It also bring a sense of relief, as we worked hard on trying to make sure that the each different shot, cut at the right beat of the music.
"... With the girl walking around, you could have it slightly darker instead of having a alternating dark scene and light..."
I found this comment very useful as it was something I didn't see the contrast of myself. I think it was important to have some scene that were in light to show the contrast of the past and present, but taking this comment on board and looking back at our trailer, I can now see how putting light scenes right after shots that in the dark, makes the light scenes seem even more brighter and ruins the concept of horror.
"...Jojo's costume & makeup made the essence of the film more effective..."
The comment made shows how the mise-en-scene of one of our main character's Annabelle (played by Jozefina" paid off really well. We were trying to go for the demonic, ghostly spirit look and from audience feedback we have manage to do this successfully.
Overall, the feedback we gained was positive, lots of people found the poster was created because of the red eyes that looked demonic and provoking. In the trailer, there are some aspects that we could improve on such as the text and the contrast between light and dark shots which were highlighted. Although most people found that the music was used effective and was in sync with the clips that changed on the beat of the music towards the climax of our trailer.
