Vox Pops

The vox pops that we shot showed us that people like horror films because there is a lot of suspense and scary moments.

From the vox pops, we learnt that people expect to see a lot of death, danger and suspense in horror films. This will inform us of what we could put in our plot because we could put in the death of a character which was unseen by the audience. This would make them ask questions such as, "How did this character die?"

People who watch horrors also expect the pace of the editing to be quite slow which also mixes with fast paced editing at the point where the characters are in danger. This helps to build up the suspense in the film so that the audience know that something is about to happen. This informs us that in our opening sequence, the editing should be slower paced to build suspense and then once the suspence has built up, the editing gets quicker to show the danger that the characters are in.
