5. How did you attract/address your audience?

How did you attract/address your audience?

I tried to attract my audience by giving it a very over edited paranormal look at the beginning of the thriller to give the killer a very dominant and uneasy presence. This would help to entice the viewer very quickly with the first 10 seconds of the thriller as it suggests that something has happened before hand. This was picked up on by by a couple of people who I had view it. One person said about the opening was, "The opening scene really grabs you and gives you a uneasy feeling which is which is what you expect from a thriller and it also keeps you to watching on". This statement made by someone that viewed my thriller gives the impression that I wanted with the opening scene and also shows how I attracted my audience.

I also attracted the viewers slightly further along into the thriller by having two innocent characters close to where the crime was committed. This keeps the viewer enticed as they know that the characters are very close to discovering such a horror but the characters are totally oblivious. This makes the viewer want to carry on watching as they are interested into when the characters are going to discover or reveal the mystery. This whole concept is used by many other directors and writers as it keeps the audience engaged. Although this concept can be annoying as the viewer knows and is willing the characters to not go to that place, but this plays with the audiences feelings and emotions making it a perfect for a thriller.
