2. RESEARCH AND PLANNING Researching into a potential target
audience. Questionnaire for target audience. 1) what do you expect
to see in thriller title sequence? 2) what music do you expect to
hear in a thriller title sequence? 3) what color schemes do you
expect to see. 4) what kind of shots do you expect to see? 5)what
kind of font do you expect to see? I asked this questionnaire to 3
different people to try and understand what to add in my opening
title sequence. I've done this as its important to include
additional information I may have forgot about also to get a better
judgment of opinion by using 3 different people.

consideration such as my actors that were being included and I
thought about this and made sure they were suited to my production

such as the music and the imagery used. To create the effects of
thriller and included lots of darkness and mystery. He reasoning is
to gain my audience that I was created for as well as acting upon
research and feedback that I was given. PRODUCTION CHOICES
