When we asked what their favourite sub genre was, the majority said either action or mystery thriller, this means they like to have a lot going on in the film and like to be stringed along in a mystery and we will take these points into account when creating our opening sequence. We were also interested in which sort of setting was most popular so we gave some options and abandoned buildings and woods came out on top. We would like to try and incorporate both of these settings into out sequence. From looking at the results overall I think that we need to ensure our opening scene is in a mysterious location and there is plenty of things going on keeping the audience interest and fulfilling their idea of a thriller.
