5. How did you attract/address your audience?

In our film opening we used a wide variety of filming techniques to attract and address the audience. Our first feature was the alarm and cross-blur transitions at the start of the film. This then followed onto the radio speaking which then lead into the upbeat soundtrack 'We don't even talk no more' which also could be related to film scenarios connecting to family issues, which draws in the audiences attention because they want to see what happens when they watch on.
The filming of our piece also draws in the viewers attention as it tells a story of the progression of her birthday which intrigues the audience into why this is being done, what will happen next in the
story? We also included an over lay of speech of her introducing herself, her family and her life which also attracts the attention of the audience because it makes her more mysterious and secretive as though she talks about what she sees as important but doesn't mention anything negative as though there could be underlying problems.The final line of the speech says 'The best present is yet to come' which makes the story more quirky and this intrigues the viewer as they will want to know what that present it, what happens to her, how she gets that present etc. These are all vital aspects of how to keep your audience interested and attracted. I think that our piece work well and i think that if it was to be shown to a group of people that the use of our techniques would keep them interested and alert.
