Audience Research

As part of our audience research we asked a small sample of people questions based on both our storyboard and the horror genre in general. We wanted to learn what other people thought of our ideas and how they relate to the conventions we have studied. For example we discovered that based on our storyboard, the sample group we asked thought our storyboard followed the conventions accurately however noting that we did challenge the conventions in parts. We also interviewed a small group that requested not to be filmed. They stated that the location of apex forest and the open road were well linked to the horror theme as well as fit with the story line.
