The Audience Research will  help our group come up with a liked by the audience idea for our own Opening Sequence. It will be easier to define all the details about out work after we've found out their specific likes and dislikes about the genre. After all, in real life film industry, all that matters is the Box office, not really the Budget the producer has started out with.

  1. Good research so far - some feedback on how the audience research will influence your production work will give you more marks...

    Obviously your group needs to discuss the production so you can make progress with planning... you need to do this asap.

    As it is your blog can only achieve a low level 2 (E) as there is no evidence of pre-production documents such as storyboard, shotlist etc
