We also watched 10 horror trailers as a class and discussed what people liked and didn't like. Three reviews are on my blog, and they also helped make us decide a gory horror could be successful if it was included in a trailer that had suspense at the beginning then plenty of speedy shots at the end. Our final piece of audience research was the focus group screening where we marked each others rough cuts of the trailers to see what needed improving. After the group we cut out a lot of shots that weren't working, and included a few more point of view shots which improved our trailer a great deal.
