3. Your last assignment
For your last
assignment you will
need to gather
feedback on your film
from a wide range of
people, and then
deliver a presentation
evaluating the
projects success.
4. What do I need to do, and how am I marked?
You will need to:
1. Create a survey or questionnaire using Google Forms.
2. Gather responses from a wide range of sources.
3. Evaluate the feedback from your questionnaire. What does it
tell you? What conclusions can you draw? How does it
change your view of the projects success?
4. Deliver a detailed 15 minute presentation, evaluating your
project based on your audience feedback and your own
reflections.
5. How do I evaluate my project?
Evaluation can be a difficult skill to learn. When I was studying at
college and university, I always found it quite confusing knowing what
I was meant to be evaluating and how to actually evaluate it.
To evaluate anything to a good standard, you have to understand two
things:
1. Understand what it is you are being asked to evaluate
2. How we can actually evaluate anything, ie. the process of
evaluation.
3. Who we need to talk to (ourselves, and others)
6. 1) What is it I’m evaluating?
There are several aspects that you need to evaluate:
1. Your individual pre-recorded insert
2. Your individual segment
3. The whole TV show, as a full episode.
4. What impact your planning had on the TV show.
5. What impact you had on the TV show (both positive &
negative)
6. What impact the team had on the TV show (communication,
ideas, team-working, reliability, strengths & weaknesses)
8. 3) Who we need to talk to
1. What do you think (your reflections)
2. What do your team think (crew debrief)
3. What do other people think (audience feedback)
We need to gather different peoples perspectives on our project.
What do you think? What do the team think? What do the audience
think? What do they like, or dislike? Did they understand what we
were going for with our TV show? Did they understand our
message? Did they enjoy the show? Did they enjoy the segment?
DId they enjoy the insert? And, most importantly…. why???
9. What am I evaluating about my insert?
● Final video versus
your original aims.
● Shot composition
● Shot variety
● Camera movement
● Shot exposure
● Shot focus
● Location lighting
● Audio recording quality
● colour correction
● Use of graphics
● Final edit
10. What am I evaluating about my TV show?
1. What did your group set out to accomplish with this show
back in January?
2. Do we have any way to measure this? Deadlines? Run-time?
Shows message/theme? Content? Guests? Plans (scripts, run
order, proposals)?
3. What were our expectations about the TV shows quality?
How can we measure this? Audience engagement? Audience
enjoyment? Communicating it's theme or message?
11. What am I evaluating about my TV show?
1. What were our expectations about the TV shows technical
quality? How can we measure this? Shot composition?
Exposure? Audio levels? Lighting? Editing?
2. What was your segment? How well did you plan it? What was
your process for producing it? How successful were you?
12. So….
1. Identify what you need to evaluate (show, segment, insert)
2. Set out how you will evaluate it (technical quality, enjoyability,
communicating message)
3. Write the questions that will get you the answers you need
(write surveys)
4. Gather feedback from other people (send out surveys)
5. Think about what you did (reflection)
6. Create a detailed powerpoint evaluating how successful your
show, segment and insert was (based on all of the above).
13. Today, your first step:
What do you need to evaluate?
List the things you need to evaluate about your show.
What questions can you ask which will help you answer them?
14. Google Forms
Upload the final edit of your TV show to YouTube.
Use Google Forms to create a questionnaire to send out to your audience. You can
include a link to the video in your questionnaire so people can watch it.
What questions do you need to ask them?
Think carefully about when to ask a closed question (short answer, often a rating or
true/false), and when to ask an open question (text based long answers)
