Main post 12a: Evaluation- audience feedback

Audience feedback on rough cut

Below is a video of us filming our target audience feedback on our rough cut. This means that this was just the 'rough copy' of our film and had not put any music or special effects into it yet. We asked them the following questions:

1. What did you think of our rough cut?
2. What did you like about what you saw?
3. What do you think we could do to improve?

After listening to what the audience had thought of our film, we analysed it and came up with the following summary:

1. They overall enjoyed it, however they believed that some of the longer shots should be cut down, or into jump-cuts as this to them dragged on a little too much.
2.  They thought that some of the lighting was a little dark and it was hard for them to see what was going on.
3. They liked the fact it did well with building suspense, even though this is not what we originally planned to do because it's a comedy film.
4. Overall, they thought that we should improve the structure of the sequence. By this they meant by making it more clear what was happening, so adding jump-cuts to speed it up a little so it keeps the audience engaged.

Finished film audience feedback

To gain an overall feedback on our finished product, we gave a questionnaire to 4 people from our audience and asked them a series of questions. The link here shows what questions we asked: Questionnaire

Featured below is a table of responses for each question, this way we can easily see what the audience thought of our final opening sequence.
