Feedback
After finalising the first draft of our coursework we needed
feedback for us to see whether we needed to make changes to our
work. The audience feedback would allow us to review our work to
reveal how well we have kept to our brief. We decided to use
different methods of peer review to get a thorough review of our
project. The methods of feedback that we used include:
                              • Face to face
                            • Video Reviews
                           • Social Networking
                                • YouTube
                            • Questionnaires

A) It was different to other programmes of       A) The way that the title sequence was shot

     obvious option of choosing one from              target audience perfectly. The DVD cover

Q) What would you change in our project?         Q) What would you change in our project?
A) If I had to change one thing it would be to   A) I think the black background on the first
     perhaps re-film Amy’s part as the camera         shot of the film with “Winstanley Road “
     is a little shaky and it doesn’t show her        doesn't really fit. I would also consider
     character off enough. The DVD and                filming Amy’s part again, I think its too
     magazine were great.                             weak.
Questionnaire
We decided that an effective way of having our project reviewed
would be to release a questionnaire on our project. We have
asked six questions that we felt were relevant about our project.
Using a sample of 20 people in our college to watch our clip and
look at our magazine and DVD covers. Their answer will then be
recorded as part of the data. The questions bring up notable
issues that we need to address within our project before we
complete our final drafts. They were constructed as a result of
Hannah and Jack’s reviews.
Does the title sequence make
you want to watch the series?
                We thought the most important thing
                about our title sequence had to be that it
                looked appealing.

                This simple yes or no question was asked
                to make sure we had made our sequence
                interesting enough that people would
                want us to make an episode of it.

                As you can see out of our 20 audience
                members, just two said they didn’t want
                to watch the series.

               Yes
               No
What age range do think this
programme is most suited for?
              0 to 3
                         Another important issue we
              4 to 8     needed to address was our target
              9 to 12    audience. We needed to be sure
              12 to 15   that we had matched our target
                         audience set out when we were
              15 to 18   planning our project.
              18 +
                         We therefore asked our survey of
                         20 people about the age range our
                         project suits most effectively.

                         Throughout the process of creating
                         our project we tried to keep in the
                         age range of 12-15 and thankfully
                         our survey revealed over 50% agree
                         that it suits this age group.
Does the black background at the
beginning of the video need replacing?
                   Yes   An issue that we did have that needed
                   No    to be addressed was that of the black
                         background at the start of our video.

                         We felt this stood out and didn’t fit in
                         with the rest of the video as it was
                         boring and we felt that the “Winstanley
                         Road” title needed something better.

                         Our survey agreed with us, with most
                         of them voting that it needed to be
                         changed.
If so, with what?
         Shot of the school
         Shot of the Lads
         Shot of all the Charecters

         The 14 people who voted that the
         background needed changing were then
         given three suggestions of a change.

         We thought these three ideas would fit
         into our piece easiest and let our survey
         decide which one they thought was best.

         The shot of the lads was clearly the most
         popular option, so this is the one we
         chose to film.
Do you think our magazine conforms
with our target audience of children
            aged 12-15?
                Yes   It was vitally important that our
                      magazine was representative of
                No    our target age group.

                      We had to ensure that others
                      thought that we had conformed
                      with typical magazine features to
                      match it with our audience.

                      Only one person out of the twenty
                      thought that it didn’t suit the age
                      range so this was a good result for
                      us.
Overall how would you rate the DVD’s
    representation of the series.
                    Very Good
                    Good
                    Ok
                    Poor
                    Very Poor
                       The final question we asked related
                       to our DVD cover.
                       We simply asked what score they
                       would give our DVD cover’s
                       representation of our program.

                       We got great feedback with no one
                       voting ‘poor’ or ‘very poor’, 50 %
                       voting ‘Good’ and 40% ‘Very Good’.
                       This gave us great confidence that
                       our DVD cover was at a good
                       standard.
