Audience research and Editing.

Audience Research:

Considering the films we used and considered for inspiration, I decided to do some research on the audience's that Pans Labyrinth, Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers, The imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus and Narnia: The Lion the Witch and Wardrobe attracted.
I researched what certificate's these films were given by the BBFC (British board of film classification) . Pans Labyrinth was certificated 15 for strong language and violence. Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers was certified PG-13 for epic battle sequences and scary images (taken from idmb). The imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus was certified PG-13 for violent images, some sensuality, language and smoking (taken from torrents). Narnia: The Lion the Witch and Wardrobe was certified PG (Taken from idmb).

Note: consider this for evaluation questions.



Editing:


My group finished our editing within the deadline and - as said previously - it was a lot more time consuming than I realised. We finished most of the editing but were still over two minutes long. We all recognised that we had far too much loaded into such a small amount of time and had to go back on our original plans (Flash backs into reality and flash forwards to show Sam's death) and cut out pieces of film to narrow it down. In the end, however, our film looked a lot better for it.
We had an organised screening (Using our class members) and provided questionnaire's for audience feedback, soon the feedback and our main task will be posted.
