Due to uploading my final product to youtube, the sequence was watched and commented by various users, giving me a general idea of how an possible audience would perceive my Thriller. The majority commented positively on things such as Mise En Scene, Editing, the Casting and the Soundtrack.
Some extracts of the Youtube comments:
I lke the use of music because it straight away tells us that this is going to be a thriller. So it creates tension as you expect that there is something is something going to happen. I thought the editing was very smooth. Great job!

I really like the use of mise-en-scene as it illustrates the family's belonging to the upper class. Dramatic music and the pattern of the slides create a tense atmosphere. Overall, a very impressive piece.
Use of music was done very well and a lot of suspence & tention created in the right places, making it overall a very successful piece, well done, very nice story line :)
Very good looking piece, fantastic idea, clearly the best I've seen in the Hurtwood Media Collection. Editing slides very nicely and music fits perfectly to create a very dramatic and tense edge. Very good use of casting as well. You should be very proud of this piece. Well done.
Fatastic work, really great shots, especially at 1:01, the editing made the story flow easily and the story really gripped me the whole way through. Great work!
Careful use of mise-en-scene, especially in the kitchen scene - the childrens board and pictures - this really creates the illusion that they are a couple with young children. The sound used at the beginning and end creates a theme music which works well with the sequence. Overall, a good opening sequence, succesful in creating the suspense, particularly with the use of a shower, which is a common thriller convention. Good work :)
you did well with the dialoge, it would have been easy to lose the sinister atmosphere with it in but it didnt . goood jaaaab!
