Testing the film- Death by Scrabble

I send the link to the Charlie Fish who writes the story. I got the comments here:

The story on which the film is based contains a lot of inner monologue from the protagonist’s point of view. I think you did a good job of converting that inner monologue into actions and body language on-screen without resorting to voiceovers or too much dialogue, and without violating the protagonist’s point of view. Well done!


Also, I gave the questionnaire to some audience, the range of their age is from 18-25 years old. Some audiences didn't know the film's meaning. Some audiences thought the body language can make the film more suspense. Some audiences thought the music played a role in creating the atmosphere of suspense.

To conclude, the testing is a good try to let me know the feelings of being an audience. I should have pay more attention on body language, and make it work. Anyway, this film is my final film of my MA study and I really do a film with body language in it. As Charlie said, I use actions and body language to convert actor's inner monologue on screen. I think learn the theory and finally act on the film is a good way to study film. I will continue my work to make film better.
