The Unseen survey

Lucy, aged 16.

1.What genre of film would you say this film was and why?
-The genre was clearly horror because the music was spooky and the font for the title was gothic. The end of the opening was also very spooky.
-The final part where it cut quickly between the shots and the girl screamed was my favourite aspect from the opening because it left you wondering what had happened.

2.What was your favourite aspect from the opening and why?

3.What areas do you feel could be improved and why?
-A couple of the shots could have been cut more smoothly.

4.Do you feel that the storyline was easy to understand from the short opening that you have seen and reasons yes/no?5.Do you feel that the name of the film related well to the storyline itself and why?
-The storyline was easy to understand from the opening: it was clear that the story revolved around the young girl as she was the main focus of the opening. The music and editing also showed that something bad and scary was going to take place which would involve the young girl.

5.Do you feel that the name of the film related well to the storyline itself and why?
-The name of the film works very well with this opening as it is clear that the spooky occurrences are due to something which is left ‘unseen’ as we cannot see the supposed ‘friend’ of the main girl.

6.Did you think that the credits/editing were smoothly finished and reasons why/why not?
 -The credits fitted in well and were smoothly finished off.

7. Do you have any other feedback?
-This film opening was clearly showing a horror film and ended on a spooky cliff-hanger which seemed to fit the conventions of this genre well.
