locations

This is some of the locations that I'm going to be using in my teaser trailer. An abandoned house to create a spooky effect and eerie woods to continue this effect which is typical of horror movies, which is why I'm sticking to the normal conventions, which the public look for in movies

 

 

 

character profiles

I created a Facebook page to promote my film and the actors in it and to keep everyone up to date with my latest improvements and ideas.

 

Examples of what inspired me to do my chosen genre

This is some trailer of movies that inspired my chosen genre and gave me some ideas as to what I would do in my own teaser trailer and how I should portray it and used these trailers as stencils for what I'm going to do. such as, the Blair witch project, the cabin in the woods and the shining.





The sixth sense inspired me by its fear factor and its ability to make its viewers sit on the edge of their seat.

Target audience questionnaire analysis

This is my target audience questionnaire, which I created then analysed to figure out what my target audience wants from a movie magazine and teaser trailer.

 

 

 

This is part of my questionnaire to find out what gender I'm aiming at the most and to know whether to keep it gender orientated or orientated for both genders, but I decided to aim at both genders as it would reach a wider target audience. 

 

 

 

This question was used to find out the age of my viewers to know what age group to specify it as and also so that I know what material I can use depended on the age of the persons.

In this question I asked what genre was preferred, horror and action got the most votes, this already collaborated with what I was going to do as I was going to choose the horror genre anway.

I used this question to find out how people learn of new releases to know how to advertise mine and reach as much of my audience as possible buy using these results to know were they are seen.

This question is to find out how often people go to the cinema, most said they went monthly then followed by rarely and never. this shows the cinema isn't as popular as it was.

I used this  to find out if people liked teaser trailers and the majority said they do, which is good for me and my movie trailer I'm completing to suit me audiences needs as best I can.

This question was very appropriate to what I'm doing as it tells me what is liked about teaser trailers which will help me in the making of my trailer to suit everyone's needs and expectations.

This gave me some ideas as to what I should include on my magazine cover I got some ideas such as " classic movies" and " top spot movies".

This indicates to me what people think is the most important part of a teaser trailer which I will aim to work on for mine. people feel the plot is the most important part which is why I will work on my plot extremely well.

 

now that I have completed my target audience questionnaire, I will use all this information I received in the making of my teaser trailer, which I will be making very soon.
