Main Character
This is the main character in our film, we chose me to be our main character because I look like the average young man that goes to college. As I look more younger than a man it represents me to be a bit more immature which was what the character required. Also I take part in sport which made the character even more fitting as we wanted the character in our film to come across as a sort of jock.
Audiance Feedback
Audience feedback
we asked an audience watching our film a series of questions and here were the results: What do you think of the title sequence? The title sequence in the film is very basic but how it has a range of cast and crew in the titles is very effective. You also used the right amount of titles in your opening sequence. What do you think about the end of the trailer? The end of the trailer is good, we like how the Jock is killed at the end of the scene and we feel that the death scene is very good. We also like how it says the after bit at the end.

Question 7
Looking Back At Your Preliminary Task - What Do You Feel You Have Learnt In The Progression From It To Full Product.
In comparison to our opening to our film, we have made a large amount of progression from our preliminary task. This is because we were a lot more advanced in using Adobe Premier Pro CS6. The reason for this being that we knew what we needed to do to cut clips down and even make them slower or change colour etc. We also knew the best ways to get the perfect shots that we need and when we need them, this helped us a lot when editing because we could choose between various shots, whereas in our preliminary task we only got one shot that we needed as opposed to numerous amounts which made it difficult for us. We also found out a way of adding in titles in the film when we need them which adds to the effect very well. We was also much more prepared for our film opening than we was our preliminary task, this is because we knew what props we had to use, the story line and where was the perfect place to film, which made it a lot easier for us when we got started.

Question 2
Evaluation Question 2
2: How Does Your Media Product Represent Particular Social Groups?
Our media product represents different social groups, the main target audience for us was teen's as they seem to feel like they could be the victim in the film and they relate their selves to how the victim feels. In our filming we looked at particular different social groups, things involving goths, Emo, Chav's, Jocks, Creeps and many different other groups. We chose to go with our instincts and research into what role a high school Jock would be like in our film. This ranged from how the Jock acted, to how the Jock dressed.

Costume: As you can see from the photo we looked into clothing, we found that a tracksuit would be suitable for the character as he has just come home from doing sport at high school and making it the typical horror film would involve a young person of some sort. We thought the killer could be getting revenge at the jock for people he has bullied at school. Our costume in the film opening represents our character to be middle class and not to be poor but not to be rich. We thought a tracksuit would represent this because he has enough money to be sporty. We compared this to the film 'Final Destination'. The reason we did this was because
Our media product represents Jock's in a very laid back sort of manor. This was key to our film because we needed to make out like the victim didn't care about anything and he was very in love with his own presence but at the same time we needed to present him as just a scared boy. In most films not much really happens to jocks but in our film we challenged this and made it so the Jock was the lower person, he had less authority and less power too.
Our film represents Jock's differently and it represents them to be not so strong as they look in most films and with this approach we found it quite successful because it aided the horror genre really well making the victim look weak.
