Most of the people talked about the lighting issues, such as not being able to see the antagonist, as well as a fair amount of analyzing on the shots, and how the lighting affected how they saw the protagonist. Some good feedback is on the close up shots of the antagonist is that we should have made the shot a bit lighter so that it was more visible, however I would go against this thought since majority of horror films are dark, as it builds more intensity. An interesting point which was made was that there should have been more dialogue in the film, although we decided not to include dialogue because we wanted to build mystery around the antagonist, which we got inspiration from Friday the 13th. This and the fact that our trailer was fairly short, so that we were unable to add much dialogue without ruining the intensity. We did have some opportunities to add some dialogue when the titles came up halfway through the trailer. Our trailer was about 52 seconds long so if we did add anything it would ruin the music. Another comment which was added was that the music was good because it builds up suspense, and that is good because one of the main focuses of my editing was the music, since music is often used to build tension in many classic horror films.
Other than this the feedback was mostly critical, which is what is needed in order to create a better film. And the feedback was good since my group has understood somethings, although there may have been some disagreements on some things overall there were many things to work on to improve, as well as the people who did the feedback were a part of the audience which we were targeting.
