From our feedback, our target audience (12-25) and time of release (October- Halloween) that we picked as a group worked well for our film. Our director chosen (James Watkins) was also listed as an element that worked in our pitch as he has experience in horror films that focus on the more traditional element of horror stories. We looked at our director's previous films success and budgets, ones that were similar in plot and cast to our film, and came up with a rough budget for our film which was also listed as something that worked in one feedback sheet. The common rating for our film was "it definitely has potential" and our research was also said to be developed well.
However, we found from our feedback that our title, which was something that we struggled with as a group to decide on, is too generic and not original enough so we changed it to "Abandoned" and the age of our characters was also something the class were not sure on. They felt, as the film was set in an orphanage, the children needed to be younger (their presence would also have a scarier effect on the audience) but our cast also had to be more well known however we didn't feel as if our budget could afford more than one recognizable star.
Overall, I am happy with our feedback and think our pitch went well as we were given points to develop on and they recognized what went well.
