Audience feedback 2

Yesterday we showed the second cut of our film and took notes on the opinions of our fellow classmates, the feedback that we received follows as such:

• We have a segment of the film which is unfilmed right now, which we intend to fill with a monster emerging in a cupboard symbolising the young girls fears, we were told that this would be hard to make so that it wasn't "cheesey" and therefore we should add an effect to it, like a blur effect to make it seem like there is actual fear and not just a person in a mask.
• We were also told that in the argument scene, the fact that the mother is lower down than the father suggests that we are attempting to have a power divide with the male being stronger however unsuccessfully, however this was not our intention, as we had no intention of making a power split, yet we took into account the feedback which was to have the dad maybe holding the mother's shoulder's so it looks like he is in control, however this is only if we were to incorporate a power divide, which we may well do.
• once again we received the advice from the first cut of the film, was that the mother seems too happy, however in our opinions she does not therefore we may not change this.

This was the main feedback that we received, we hope to make relevant changes for the 3rd cut of our film. There is great importance of artist research as it allows us to reflect on our film and make changes accordingly.
