A few lessons back we were sent out in our films partnerships to interview random members of the college, asking them questions on our specific genre. Unfortunately our footage was lost and the cameras were all misplaces so we took it upon ourselves to head back out and ask a whole new bunch of people the same questions.
Later the same day we went out of class in search of people to interview and ask questions about horror movies and what their opinion was on our 25 word pitch. We got around to 3 people in the short space of time given and asked them 7 questions:
- What would you expect in an opening horror sequence?
- How often do you watch horror movies?
- Who do you enjoy to watch horror movies with? (Please specify ages)
- What conventions do you look for in a horror movie?
- What are your favourite aspects of a horror movie?
- What's your favourite sub-genre of a horror movie? Comedy? Psychological? Action? Gothic? Zombie? Or slasher?
- What do you think of our 25 word pitch for our horror movie?
Their answers were very positive and gave us a lot of insight into the type of movie opening sequence/title to create. Feedback on our 25 word pitch included "That's cool, interesting and not typical. It's different" from one boy also "quite good!" and from the only girl we got round to interviewing she said "Pretty good! Depending on the plot and how it plays out it could be good!"
Below is our miniature interview of 4 people who kindly answered our questions on horror/thriller conventions, our pitch and other media bitsys. We interviewed people of varied age, college students and a teacher; each person with individual tastes and preferences. We found their feedback really useful and their tips will come in handy when filming. Enjoy!
