Audience Feedback

Examples of our audience feedback. The examples below range from videos in which we interviewed members of our target audience, asking for feedback to our peers via Whatsapp, voiceclips and written feedback.




Name: Lucy
Age: 17

Lucy said that all three of our products looked professional which was positive feedback as this is what we had wanted to achieve. She also commented on our use of camera work and this was varied in the trailer which made it look more professional. Lucy also mentioned that our trailer was conventional therefore did not reveal too much of the storyline in order to make our audience want to go and watch the film and all three texts worked well together in promoting the film. One improvement Lucy suggested regarding the film poster was that the white border wasn't particularly conventional of film posters and maybe would have worked better if the main image filled the entire page. Although we tried this we felt that the white border made our product more unique and was still inkeeping with the drama genre. We used the white borders to make the poster resemble a polaroid to give the film a more vintage and gritty feel.



Name: Brieani
Age:17

Brieani picked up on our storyline also. She said that she was intrigued to find out who 'The Others' were and mentioned that this presented a twist to the storyline of a sci-fi element which was effective in promoting the film because you had questions after watching the trailer in which you wanted to find out. She also mentioned the fonts used on the magazine cover were simple but effective as they weren't too distracting from the main image. The colour scheme was also quite feminine which was good because we wanted to have this throughout our texts to promote our strong female character. Additionally, she said that the galaxy background worked well on the film poster because it suggested an element of fantasy therefore this was consistent to represent our drama and sci-fi genres.

From this feedback we learnt that our soundtrack definitely helped to convey our genre. This was enabled by the atmosphere it created to show the drama genre but also had an eerie element which hinted to the sci-fi genre to present our hybrid genre. Rasharn also pointed out that our camera work was good particularly the 360 shot around our female protagonist which added to the disequilibrium. Regarding the magazine and poster, the colour scheme was good such as the combination of blues, pinks and purples which created the fantasy element of our products linking back to the theme of our trailer. It was also commented that our products looked professional and worked well together in promoting our film.

This is an example of the written feedback we got. This was specifically for the completed cut of our trailer and commented on the improvements we had made and how this had worked effectively. For example, Laura liked the fact we had now included critics because it was conventional of the drama genre and the galaxy background added interest to the text. She also said that our use of sound was much better and helped to convey the storyline much better. The first thing she picked up on watching our new trailer was that there was definitely a sci-fi element to the film therefore the improvements we have made definitely helped to portray our plot better whilst still creating enigma and show our hybrid genre.
