To find out what attracts my audience to a thriller genre, I had to find out what is expected in a thriller film. To find oit what is expected in a thriller genre I had to find out the codes and conventions of the triller genre. When I found out what was expected and how to attract my audience, I could plan my thriller opening to appeal and address my audience. I had to do inital resarch into the thriller genre, especially the codes and conventions.

I tried to sucessfuly follow as many codes and conventions of a thriller genre. Including cinematography, lighting, sound and mise-en-scene.
I had to discover who my audience were, do so I created a survey monkey -questionaire- online. My survey meant that i could quickly and effectivly ask people what they like about the thriller genre; without taking up too much of their time. By doing the survey it meant that I could analize the results and include what my target audience want in a thriller opening, by doing this my target audince would hopefully enjoy my media project. The survey also helped me to plan my media project in more detail. I think finding out all this information helped me a lot and mad it eaiser to plan my storyline.
By asking what my audince want to see in a thriller I was able to know exactly what they want and include it in my thriller opening. Attracting a keen audince is important for any film maker, so listening to what the audience want is the most important thing.
While making my media project I created rought cuts along the way and showing my target audience. By doing this they could see my thriller opening coming together. My target audince could also comment and give me areas to improve. Feed back was generally helpful and important to the development of my thriller opening. The areas needing improvement where, the lenghth of shots, at the beging I had too many shots which where too quick. I also needed to use more spooky music.

To be able to change to use the ideas my target acudince want and giving them what they want to see meant that it would improve my thriller for the better. My target audience liked the fact that my female had power and bravery to enter the daunting looking house. The female having bravery will make my thriller more appealing for my female target audience. A character that the viewer can connect and sympathise with. The fact that Jessica is brave enough to enter the house could also show that she is stupid to enter it, due to her bravery to enter the house it leads to an unfortunate fate for Jessica. The audience should feel scared and sorry for the young girl in an unfortunate situation. When Jessica is reacting to the ghostly children we see her scared look on her face, similar to Daniel's in The Shining, creating symathy from the audience towards the girl.
I have also tried to create sympathy towards the children coverd in blood, by the unfortunate events they have experienced. Similar to the children forced to kill themselves in The Woman In Black. The children haven't killed themselves in my thriller opening, suicide and murder can be upsetting for any audience.
The short clip shows the bravery of the girl as she makes a quick desison to help out the starnge calling for help from the ghostly children. She could also be considerd stupid, like the typical female would be in a industrial film.
