What specific elements of the film opening did you like?	What specific elements of the film opening did you dislike?	Did this look like a movie opener and did it make you want to know what happens next? Explain.	Was there anything that left you confused? (be specific)	What suggestions do you have to make this movie opener better?
I like the explanations throughout the film opener.	I dislike how there was little suspense. Also, Daniel should not have been in black clothing.	It does look like an opener since you now wonder who will be stalked next.	I was confused as to how Daniel did not see the stalker in plain sight.	Daniel should wear colored clothing so he looks different than the stalker. The shots where he speaks should be more clear.
The music fit, the dark gritty camera quality kind of added.	The fact it seems more like a trailer and the fact that it ends.	No, not a movie opener, more like a short film, it clearly ended which makes it not qualify as an opener.	No	Concept is good, just don't end it. Act a little better.
At the beginning I liked that they had the stalker and Daniel all in one picture because you could then see how close he was to the stalker and still not know he was there.	I didn’t like how dark it was at times and the filmed got his fingers in the frame.	I think that I had lots of potential, but they ended it with the end which should not have been like that.	I feel that most of it was clear.	They need to change the orientation of the frame, the lighting could be different, and it was very shaky. So keep the idea just get better clips filmed.
I really enjoyed the beginning of the film, I feel like the text font and black background really adds to the suspense of the scene.	The camera angles were a little shaky and it distracted the audience. Also the lighting in geb first scene glimmered in the camera lens and is also distracting.	It makes me want to see who the killer is and what will happen further due to mostly the font and feel of the film itself.	Some of the text is too much to read and it really takes a long time.	Try and reduce the amount the writing on the screen when looking at the in text. Also if you’re going to add more text then give enough time to read it.
The sound effects and music.	The opening was just text, it could have had voice over.	No, and yes. It made me want to know what happens next but I can't because it ends.	No, not really.	Voice over for dialogue, better acting.
I liked the music.	I disliked the camera quality.	Yes, I am curious on what I will have to do next.	No, this was my film opener	Better quality, better editing, better acting.
Love the font and the title music. I love movies where it makes you read details after showing you a clip, it's giving Star Wars explanation intro. The handheld camera following him as we walked towards his house made it feel like we were in the scene walking behind him. The shank was hilarious, because why did it have to sound like that. 58??! Also, I love how after the end slide, it kept playing the eerie music with a black screen for a while longer. It had me staring at my computer expecting a jump scare, so I really liked the anticipation that prolonged ending created.	All good.	If Daniel's body was never found and the killer was never caught, what is the rest of the movie about? Daniel or the killer? That factor would make or break my interest.	Not really, I loved the writing in between the shots.	If the movie is about Daniel, end it with a title slide that says they found his body months/years later with a "to be continued" and make it a mystery movie. If the movie is about the killer, end it by saying he's on the hunt again and found his next victim. Make it lead into something since this is just supposed to be an opener, not a short film. This one and the alien one were definitely the best ones though.
The intro was good, the camera angles were good, and the text fonts fit the theme.	I didn't like how each scene was pretty slow.	This did look like a movie opener, it looked pretty interesting so i would like to know what happens next.	Why it wasn't landscape.	Make the opener landscape, and maybe more monologue.
I liked the plot, and how it made the movie actually creepy.	I did not like the little amounts of angles used.	Yes, it made me want to know who the killer was.	No.	I would suggest for there to be more angles used throughout the film, and more dialogue.
I liked that there was plenty of time to read each thing that came up.	I did not like that it was kind of boring to watch.	Yes it sets up the story of his stalker.	No I was not confused.	I don’t have any suggestions.
There were in between of dialogue and caption that explains what could happens and what's happening. Motion shots, 1st person shot, and whole body shots. The lighting was pretty nice and fitted for the mood.	The thief looked into the camera angle which didn't make much sense why they would do that other than making sure Daniel went away. Choppy camera angle when Daniel left and the thief makes a closer appearance.	No, it felt like a short film because the ending was there and explained through the captions in the video.	No.	Add low or high angle shots and make it seem more impactful and suspenseful.
I liked the horror aspect to it as well as the mystery. The setting was also good as it gave off an ominous feeling	I disliked the ending as it wasn't a cliff hanger and the film ended there.	Overall it was very good, but like I said, the ending should be more open ended so that the film could continue	Nothing confusing	Fix the ending and add some more dialogue in the film
The lighting and suspenseful music made for a good horror film feeling	The quietness of the dialogue	This felt like a movie opener, and I would enjoy seeing what happens next.	What was the killer's motive when they whispered "vengeance" upon entering his home.	A little more dialogue or storyline to make the viewer more sympathetic to Daniel.
I like the low key lighting and creepiness of the film.	I didn’t not like the camera how it did not cover the whole screen.	This kind of looked like a movie opener. The style was like a movie opener but it told the whole story and there was no suspense at the end.	I was confused as the why Daniel was being stalked.	I would change the camera and add something at the end to create suspense.
- music was fitting - setting was fitting - plot was clear	- camera work was terrible - editing was nonexistent - acting was severally unconvincing - the script was ridiculous, especially when the stalker did the cheesy fake laugh - lighting was very obviously shot from a phone and very amateur looking	It did look like a movie opener. No I did not want to see what happened next since the entire story took place in the first scene.	I was confused regarding how they knew his body was stabbed 58 times if his body was never found? That logically doesn’t make much sense.	- reshoot every shot intentionally and with attention to detail - act convincingly - add on to the story: does anybody find the body? Is this a PowerPoint in a forensic investigation? What happens after Daniel is stabbed?

Summary:

With all this information I plan on adding and changing a few things in my opener. Many people gave me some good advice on what I should change to make others more interested. Overall, most comments are telling me that I need too improve the entire film opener.
