Feedback from rough cut and changes

After thoroughly going through my teaser trailer so far and getting a wide variety of audience feedback I have realised the amount of changes that need to be made to ensure that my teaser trailer works to the best of its full potential. After getting several bits of feedback I have found that the most common problem was that there was a narrative for the teaser trailer, yet this was only being told and shown through the titles I had produced and put in. Because of this factor it has made me realise that I need to come up with some more shots that are going to represent my narrative better. I will still have the same narrative but I will need some new footage and shots to represent the narrative clearer. 
Therefore I have come up with a new, more simpler idea that I think will work to my advantage as it means I will be able to get clearer footage for my narrative. I have slightly altered the narrative with this idea as I think it has potential. It will still include the main idea of a girl and boy with a diary, with the girl having a secret and it being found out, but this time I will show more of te secret being found out. I will include footage of the girls secret being revealed and how she reacts to this. I also think that I could progress by including a Voice over in my teaser trailer. There will be 6 main scenes, that will include some still shots and some footage. There will be some main titles that will be used of 'one girl,' 'one boy,' 'one diary,' 'one secret' and 'one nightmare.' I think that this idea will be more simplistic but will be beneficial and will work really well with still shots as well as some footage.

T.A feedback for Magazine and Poster

So far from the audience feedback I have received, the feedback I have been given has been very equally divided. Most of my audience that I asked, have a very split decision on which idea they prefer and as well as some suggesting that the ideas are merged together, when I asked if they would like to see something that included bits of each idea, everyone said yes.

From my audience feedback, 18 out of the 20 people I asked also preferred the strapline "where your secrets lie" and I therefore intend to use this. Audience feedback was important for me as I also got many suggestions and other ideas for my posters and also my magazine front cover; some of which were to use more buzz words and make the picture bigger.

I will take all of my audience feedback and start developing my initial ideas using Photoshop and InDesign before I then again ask for more feedback on the developing progress for my ancillary products.
