I feel that our film will appeal to our audience well as even though only one person voted for the forest setting I think that we can safely say this will be an unconventional horror film, which our target audience did say they preferred to a predictable slasher hollywood blockbuster film.
We also have a smaller budget so this is a good way to use our resources and include settings that we are able to get to.
