How much did you enjoy the short film?
For this question we have asked the audience to rate of how much they think we
did in term of delivering our main message through our short film. The purpose of
this question was for us to be able to justify on our narrative.
From looking at the result, there are 50% of people rated as ‘5 or excellent’; this
implies that the use of Todorov theory is really effective. However, since there is
13% of our responders rate it to ‘3, average’ this suggests that there are certain
elements that which needs to be improve. For instance one of our audience of
aged 13 stated that ‘Should have more dialogue’, This highlight that our audience
at young age would prefer to have dialogue to make it more understandable. I
think this is really concerning because as we are 5years older than our audience,
we tend to missed understand and overlooked at our young age interpretation.
Additionally, later on in my questionnaire we have asked ‘What message did you
received from the short film’; the overall answers are stated about education. This
qualitative question has proved that our message behind the short film is in a high
standard.
The reason of why we asked this question is because we would
like to see how effective we are able to entertain our audience.
As our short film is for education purposes we would like to also
include the sense of entertainment to it because we want
people whom has watch our short film to be enjoyable as well
as gaining encouragement.
The result that I received was really impressive because 30%
rated as 5 and 70% is 4. This implies that our short film are
successfully produced because we are able to to meet our
purposes such as combining education and entertainment
together. Sine our audience are more likely to be enjoying
watching the short film; thus may enhance the chance that
secondary school students would enjoy the PSHE session

In your opinion how much do you rate the
cinematography?
Did the short film grab your attention?
1 2 3 4 5
I personally think that this question is more likely aimed my older age
group i.e. media students because they have been educated about the
effective of and different used of cinematography for different purposes
in their course. Thus this question will access on the use of
cinematography skills.
The result of this question is really positive. This may be because we
have effectively used the over the shoulder shot and direct address that
keep our audience focusing on our short film. Additionally supporting
with the previous question: did the short film grab your attention? 85%
of our audience rates it as 4, this simply implies that our use of
cinematography is really effective that able to grabs the audience
attention.

In term of length do you think the short film

We have used a theme of education
to tackle our target audience, to do
this we have got teenager casts as
well as technologies such as Iphone
to relate the characters with target
audience; however, we are
unsuccessfully in relating the viewers
with our characters. This evidently
shown from the result.
100% of our responders think that our
short film’s content is suitable for their
age group. Perhaps because we
used education to link our audience
together with the short film.
About 90% of people would
recommend my short film to the
others, meaning that they are
enjoying and having benefit from
watching this short film due to the
fact that my short film is an
encouragement tool that would brings
themselves to a higher position in a
