Final Feedback

We showed our final piece to our class as got a range of feedback. Some of the feedback we were given included:

"The music fitted in well with the story. It was a good choice as it was
calming yet creepy, and built in volume and pace as the action developed in your
piece."

"I lulled into a full sense of security, and felt comfortable and settled at the beginning. You then get an uneasy feeling in your gut and feel concerned for the dancer when you see the plot begin to unravel. Once you realised there was more to the storyline that you initially thought, it made you want to continue watching."

"The dancer was a very believable and plausible character which allowed me to connect with her and wonder who she is, and what she is like. This automatically results in you being concerned for her safety once the shots of the photo wall evolve. The music adds to that sense of tension, and when the music builds your heart rate builds"

"The effects were used really well! The white flash and the camera shutter sound made me ask questions about what it was? and who was doing it? This gave a good initial atmosphere before the plot began to unravel some more"

"The overall feel of the piece was unique. You don't often seen such a calming start, but it really worked. The lack of violence/action was replaced by the feel of uneasyness and being uncomfortable when you watch. Kind of like a lump in your throat as you are not really sure what you are meant to be scared of. The whole construction of the piece really works"

I was very happy with the feedback we received, as they highlighted the key elements in which I was looking to produce. It made me more confident about our product and helped me to believe that we really did achieve what we set out to.
