Poster - Target audience feedback
































Here, I have asked for feedback through whatsApp (using social media) where I have got positive and critic feedback. They all have said that they've liked it such as the colour scheme, image and typography. As a friend has said that I could use a silhouette of the main character this could've been done as an alternative to the main image not working out.

Shot Transitions

"At the very start we've used a quick dip to black to set the scene (as Raven chaotically chases Phoenix in order to abolish her). We then again use the dip to black here (right before the the production company logo appears)...to contrast...with what's to come next as the protagonist is seen as normal at first.
(0.25) We use a cross-dissolve here showing moments over time (to pass time through this montage) instead of making it suspenseful to contrast later on...(symbolising happy moments with the new girl)
(0.41) Here we use another dip to black (as well as using film dissolve with some other texts later on) to relate back to Todorov's theory, where we introduce a change of equilibrium, stating that there's something wrong and mysterious all of a sudden.
(0.54) We've used simple cutaways here to quicken the pace for the audience, making sure that the shots don't drag.
(1.08) Again another dip to black is used here to further symbolise a sense of danger and mystery 
(1.24) Here we've used a dip to white as a means of looking into Raven's past and secrets however, instead of exposing it we've quickly cut to Phoenix's reaction (ensuring that this is quick and snappy too) to keep the audience hooked. 
(1.39) We've again used dip to black to quicken the pace of what's just happened (as this was unexpected and is a way of keeping the audience intrigued) showing sudden injuries and to highlight the chaos that is happening through the different angles. 
(1.50) We've also used cutaways (a slight cut on action, of the protagonist Raven as she moves her head towards the camera)...to make it clear that she is myschievous (and truly daunting) 
We've used a cross dissolve right at the end (showing use jump cut for the audience) leaving a mystery behind of what is to happen.
