. THE CHAIN OFFICIAL PREMIERE

As a group we had to complete the task of presenting to an audience of our peers our completed Horror trailer. We spoke briefly about our target audience, and this justified why we were so selective on how the ages of those we invited to the showing.We let the audience know the sub-genre was supernatural horror, but that we had also incorporated slasher elements as well. A lot of the audience members seemed unsure of what it was we were saying because of their lack of experience with media language.  used iconography such as blood, candles, a knife and a graveyard which is also typical aspects used in horror films. I then went on to talk about horror films that have inspired our creative decisions.

(left is an example of the invitations we created for the audience)

I created a set of 15 detailed questionnaire's so that we could collect the views of the audience.
